4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,920
station.
And now it came from the radio.
5
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,640
You are listening to It Came
From the Radio, the official
6
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:48,080
show of the Big Apple kind.
I'm Jennifer Elise Feldman.
7
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,160
I'm here with a very, very
special man, our senior
8
00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:55,840
correspondent Charlie Saladita.
Hello fun seekers.
9
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,200
And Hassan Godwin, is he on the
line?
10
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,360
He's not on the line.
Well, I, I was trying to be
11
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,200
optimistic so it it's just me
and Charlie here, but our
12
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,320
Charlie and I are anyway.
So.
13
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,040
So here we go Charlie, anything
you want to say before we get
14
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,240
the show started?
Anything on your mind?
15
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,440
Yes, I am very impressed with
Mark.
16
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,880
He didn't call me 8000 times to
make sure I was going to make
17
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,400
the show.
You know, I almost called him on
18
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,600
my way here and I figured, you
know what, let's have a little
19
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,440
fun here.
Let's see who shows up.
20
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,360
I wasn't sure.
If it was going to be you or
21
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,000
Francis Bonet, and I was happy
to, I'd be happy to see either
22
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,360
of you.
But I was delighted to see you
23
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,240
anyway.
So let's get the show started,
24
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:36,320
shall we?
Sure.
25
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,960
All right, we shall.

29
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,240

But before we do that, we got to
30
00:01:55,240 --> 00:02:05,920
take it away with the news.
And the news is brought to you
31
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:10,360

warring alien races fighting

47
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,840
source.
The war finds its way to Earth

and some humans gain abilities
as a result.

57
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,600
As always, we start off with the
sad news.
58
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,880
Newscaster and anchor Ernie
Anastos died recently from
59
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,240
pneumonia.
At one point in his career,
60
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:49,440
Ernie anchored on 4 New York
networks, ABCCBS, FOX and UPN.
61
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,600
Of note, he was also a
children's author and host of
62
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,160
his own nationally syndicated TV
show, Positively the America.
63
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,880
In 2017, New York City Mayor
Bill de Blasio, my favorite,
64
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,840
honored and asked those by
designating every designated
65
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,520
every March 21st to be Ernie
Anasto's day.
66
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,040
He was 82.
I knew him, I worked with him.
67
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,400
He was amazing.
He was a gentleman's gentleman,
68
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:19,399
the nicest guy in the world, and
everybody loved him.
69
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,240
Including de Blasio.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
70
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:24,920
Well, yes, de Blasio loved him
too.
71
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,640
Because he honored him.
Well, yeah.
72
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,520
It's a big honor.
I don't count that.
73
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,640
I want to be honored by de
Blasio, but that's another
74
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,720
story.
I would love to be honored.
75
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,520
By the Blasio, anyway.
My mother loved him and I, I
76
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,520
told him my mom loves you.
He stopped what he was doing,
77
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,720
did an autographed picture to my
mom.
78
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,200
He was, he was, he was great.
He was a good guy.
79
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,320
I miss him.
What was one of your favorite
80
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,080
things about him?
You know, I love nice people and
81
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:53,400
I love just, you know, just
being nice and talking, very
82
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,600
personable.
And he was just an all around
83
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,880
nice guy.
I mean, the first time I met
84
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,200
him, I got a big hello from him
and he knew I worked there and
85
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,000
he was just, it was one of the
people who worked with him.
86
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:09,400
So and just, it's very sad.
I was very sad when I heard that
87
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,840
news.
Well, like attracts like and you
88
00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:14,480
are certainly a very nice and
very personable guy and you're a
89
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,280
delight to talk to.
And I'm so glad that we met by
90
00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:19,960
chance.
So you know, of course you're
91
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,920
going to be attracted to people
who are.
92
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,040
Also, and Ditto with you.
I thank you.
93
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:30,520
It was like, yeah, I was so glad
our boss asked you to be on the
94
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,640
show with us.
That was a shock to me.
95
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:34,920
Yeah, keep it coming.
Keep it coming.
96
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,680
And I was just listening to
something about love bombing on
97
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,080
the way here.
I'm not really into love
98
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:40,680
bombing, but it's just on my
mind.
99
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,760
All right, last bit of sad news,
Actor Nicholas Brendan also died
100
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,800
recently.
He actually died in his sleep.
101
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,600
Well, Nicholas was in a handful
of movies and TV shows.
102
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,080
He's perhaps best known for his
role as Kevin Lynch in 21
103
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,760
episodes of the CBS series
Criminal Minds, and of course,
104
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,720
as Zander Harris, all 144
episodes of the series Buffy the
105
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,920
Vampire Slayer, which ran from
1997 to 2003.
106
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,000
Of note, Nicholas has an
identical twin brother.
107
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,040
He was 54.
Wow, that's that's scary.
108
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:17,200
That's and, and again, another,
another good actor, Another.
109
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,400
I mean, I remember hearing about
that.
110
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,000
And what's her name?
Sarah Michelle Gella.
111
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,720
Yes.
One play Buffy did such a
112
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,520
wonderful, such a wonderful
tribute to him.
113
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,240
Yeah.
Well. 54 and and do they know
114
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,200
they just he died in his sleep
are there?
115
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,960
Any, I don't know, that's that's
like scary to me. 54 yeah, I I
116
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,000
mean what what causes that And
you know.
117
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:45,760
Well, you know, there's a lot of
speculations, but this isn't the
118
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,200
show for those type of
speculations, Mark, probably.
119
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,160
Wouldn't want.
That, but if, if I was writing
120
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,440
the show as I, you know, this
would be a totally different
121
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:53,520
show.
We go off on a tangent, but I'm
122
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,040
going to go on a quick, quick,
quick tangent.
123
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,520
I was supposed to be acting
today.
124
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,840
Oh my God.
And I actually didn't want to
125
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:01,840
really do it, but that's a
different part.
126
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:06,840
But my Co star died.
My Co star also died suddenly
127
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,960
and he's younger than 54.
I don't know his exact age, but
128
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,520
yeah, there's a lot of people
dying suddenly.
129
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:15,920
So RIP.
I don't.
130
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,120
I don't have all the answers,
but someone hopefully will get
131
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,680
to the bottom of this.
Yeah, let's get away from the
132
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,560
sad.
Yeah, so, OK, so we're going to
133
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,000
take a quick break, A quick
break and we're going to be
134
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,120

Oh, I'm doing much better that
I'm sitting across from you.
180
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,160
All right, so let's get into it.
We have some not so sad news.
181
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,520
Let's start with Cradle Con.
You've been to Cradle Con.
182
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,400
We had a lot of fun there and
Cradle Con returns to the Cradle

And you are listening to a cane
189
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,200
from the radio.
And again, we are with Charlie.
190
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,600
You know what, I got to just
take a quick note and it just
191
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,760
acknowledges I have notes from
Mark right here and in the
192
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,600
script without any type of
designation that it's separate.
193
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,200
It says, take a pause and then
say, so I'm all be funneled
194
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:48,320
here.
So if I sound like I don't know
195
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,120
what I'm talking about, I'm
reading a script, ladies and
196
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:51,600
gentlemen.
All right, well, Mark's going to
197
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:52,920
love that.
All right, let's go back to the
198
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,880
show.
And then it says and then say.
199
00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:00,880
So now let's do the regular
news, Pause from the, then point
200
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,280
to Brian and he will play the
net.
201
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,120
Clip.
From the that's a lot of nuts
202
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:06,800
department.
OK, enough with the nonsense.
203
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,400
Let's try to leave all the the
4th wall.
204
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,200
We're going to stop breaking the
4th wall and go back to the
205
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,160
radio show.
All right.
206
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,160
The new sci-fi film project Hail
Mary has taken the number one
207
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:20,440
spot in the domestic box office,
pulling in $80.5 million in
208
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,640
ticket sales in its first week
of release, beating out the new
209
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,720
animated film Hoppers, which
came at the number two spot,
210
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,560
making an additional $17.8
million in its second week of
211
00:11:30,560 --> 00:11:32,520
release.
For those of you keeping track,
212
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,920
I'm definitely not.
Avatar is still the highest
213
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:40,720
grossing film of this year with
$403.8 million, of which $153.5
214
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:45,600
million was this year, followed
by an aforemeshioned Hoppers
215
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:51,480
with $120.1 million.
Well, I know two people who saw
216
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,440
Hail Mary, like yesterday.
Oh yeah.
217
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,360
And they came out, they said it
was fabulous and.
218
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,640
What did they say about it?
What was so fabulous?
219
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,360
That they paid that much money
and they loved it.
220
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,920
Oh, OK.
Yeah, I I didn't see the movie.
221
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,640
I have no idea what it's about,
but.
222
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,800
I'm going to have to call Hail
Mary for this radio show.
223
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,360
Hail Mary.
Somebody help me.
224
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,320
Somebody help me?
You throw the script up in the
225
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,200
air and then Hail Mary hope it
comes down and you know what
226
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,600
makes sense?
For anyone who wants to write in
227
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,160
or call in, I'm really curious.
As I was driving here it was
228
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:26,040
wondering who which listeners?
I really want to know how much
229
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,440
money every movie is making
every week.
230
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:29,160
I want to.
Know.
231
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,120
Yeah, I who?
Cares who does it.
232
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,000
I, that's my favorite line when
they said this movie made $80
233
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,360
million and I'm thinking I'm not
getting any of that.
234
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,120
So you know, who I why should I
care?
235
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:42,840
Well.
Please, I I am begging you,
236
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,520
begging you.
I'm even going to put my e-mail
237
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,960
in here.
You can personally e-mail me
238
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:51,840
JFELDY dot BE like to be or not
to be.healthy@gmail.com LD dot E
239
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,920
dot healthy.
And please tell me what do you
240
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,720
think about finding out how much
money each movie is making?
241
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,120
All right, next, moving on.
The Oscars have come and gone,
242
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,680
but more importantly, that means
that the Razzies have also been
243
00:13:02,680 --> 00:13:05,520
given out.
So this year's clear cut winner
244
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,400
is War of the Worlds with five
awards, worst picture, Director,
245
00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:14,240
actor, remake, RIP off or
Sequel, and worst Screenplay of
246
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,360
note.
The movie was nominated for six
247
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:21,600
Razzies but wound up losing to
all 7 dwarfs For the worst
248
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:26,240
screen combo, War of the Worlds
was Ice Cube and his zoom camera
249
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:27,680
the Razzies.
Did you check it out?
250
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:33,160
No, I don't, but Mark usually
has a full rundown of who won
251
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:38,280
and usually when you when you
the razzies of for really
252
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:42,240
terrible movies.
But that sort of boosts their
253
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,680
what do you their reputation.
I would love people.
254
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,200
Yeah.
Oh yeah, man.
255
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,320
I would like a okay, what would
you like?
256
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,520
What would you prefer, a Razzy
or a Golden Globe?
257
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,080
Depends on if I what I was going
for.
258
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,080
OK, you're an actor.
You're a lead actor in the
259
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,240
remake of Titanic.
They do Titanic too.
260
00:14:00,680 --> 00:14:02,800
Titanic.
You play Leos character.
261
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,120
Search.
From So what do you want to
262
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:05,400
Razi?
You want Leo.
263
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,680
Leo comes back to the surface.
As you.
264
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:09,680
Where did she go?
No, you're the new star.
265
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,040
Well, I would.
You know what they say, Jen?
266
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,680
Bad press is good press.
What it?
267
00:14:14,680 --> 00:14:15,880
What is?
I thought it was you can't turn
268
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,360
home to a housewife.
Yeah.
269
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,240
Isn't that what they say?
You know what they say?
270
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:20,640
No.
I think yes.
271
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,440
So which one is it you want a
Razzie?
272
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,240
Yeah, because any mention is
good mention.
273
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,280
Not a Golden Globe.
Yeah, a big one.
274
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,960
If I wanted more money and I've
wanted prestige, I'll go with
275
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,040
the Golden Globe.
I'll give you a prestige trial.
276
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,840
I'll give you a prestige.
All right now from that, it's
277
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,240
not a done deal until it airs
department.
278
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,440
None other than actress Sarah
Michelle Gellar has announced
279
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:46,520
via Twitter or or the show is is
is very old school that the new
280
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,040
Buffy series is no longer in
development.
281
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,320
Sarah says no one saw this
coming, including the head of
282
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,520
Searchlight.
I I got the call as we were
283
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,800
stepping onto stage for the
premiere of their own movie.
284
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:02,080
And it's also the weekend of
Chloe going to the Oscars as a
285
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,480
best director nominee for
Hamnet.
286
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,160
For them to call us on the
Friday of what should have been
287
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,520
Chloe's victory lap for an
incredible film and my world
288
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,560
premiere of something that I
work very hard for is that says
289
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,120
something.
We had an executive on her show
290
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,040
who was not only not a fan of
the original, but was proud to
291
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,000
constantly remind us that he had
never seen the entirety of the
292
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,280
series and how it wasn't for
him.
293
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,680
Wow.
That's very hard when you're
294
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,680
taking a property, this is
Morrison, Michelle Keller.
295
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,800
That's very hard when you're
taking a property that is as
296
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,640
beloved as Buffy, not just to
the world, but to me and Chloe.
297
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,840
So that tells you the uphill
battle that we've been fighting
298
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,240
since day one when your
executive is literally proud to
299
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,120
tell you that he didn't watch
it.
300
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,600
What would?
Oh, I mean, I'm an actor, so I
301
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,400
have feelings on this.
But again, I'm going to throw it
302
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,800
back to you as you're going to
be the new Leonardo DiCaprio.
303
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,680
OK, So Charles Saldino's in
studio.
304
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,800
And now you're going to be just
pretend you're Leo DiCaprio and
305
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,840
you're in this series with Sarah
Michelle Gellar.
306
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,400
How do you feel?
Your your your your your
307
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,440
director, your executives don't
even really care about the show.
308
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:13,280
I would feel like I am so glad
not to be a part of this.
309
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:17,160
Now, if the executive feels like
this, what could he do to us
310
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,160
down the road?
You know, I'm glad it didn't get
311
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,160
off the thing only to disappoint
us later.
312
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,840
And then I would go and take a
Louisville Slugger and beat the
313
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:29,760
living crap out of the
executive.
314
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,840
No, I wouldn't do.
That, well, actually related
315
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,880
notion, you know, sometimes they
say, you know, they don't want
316
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,160
you to study or they don't want
you to study with other teachers
317
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,160
because then you come in with
preconceived notions.
318
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,160
No, I can't make that fit here.
I'm trying to be devil's
319
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:44,040
advocate.
I can't.
320
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,880
So therefore, really the only
solution, if I was part of this
321
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,840
as an actor or makeup artist or
really at all, I would kidnap
322
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:57,200
the executive and then I would
sit him down and I get him
323
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,120
really high.
I'm marijuana, you know,
324
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:03,120
nothing, nothing too scary.
And I'd make him watch the whole
325
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,160
Buffy series and and make sure
he saw everything.
326
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,560
That's good that you use
marijuana because then he won't
327
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,280
get Glaipoma watching the
series.
328
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,560
So if he's nauseous, then he
won't be nauseous.
329
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:15,480
And you know, some scenes are
kind of scary.
330
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,880
Some people get nauseous when
they're too scared so.
331
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,680
You got to, you got to remember
something people like who said
332
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,920
Cheers wasn't going to Channel
7, who said Cheers wasn't going
333
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,880
to make it.
We got to get rid of it.
334
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,240
Let's take it off the air.
Channel 4 saw that and said,
335
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,760
what are you crazy?
And they, they took it.
336
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,600
They had a big hit with Cheers.
Yeah.
337
00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:41,960
And and.
Sometimes I like to go where
338
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,480
nobody knows my name.
That's my theme song.
339
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,080
Sometimes I like to go where
nobody knows my name.
340
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,200
Yeah, I went to that place in
Boston and nobody knew my name.
341
00:17:51,360 --> 00:17:53,360
Isn't it kind of great though?
Yeah, right.
342
00:17:53,360 --> 00:17:56,080
Because when everyone knows how
you guys, hey, how you doing?
343
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:57,800
Where?
Everybody knows my name.
344
00:17:58,320 --> 00:17:59,760
Where?
Where do you go where everyone
345
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,360
knows your name?
Oh my God, everyone right?
346
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,920
You're known.
Where do I go where everybody
347
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,200
knows my family's house?
Your family's house.
348
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:08,920
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They go in there.
349
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,240
They go.
Hey, yeah, no, I had a bar back
350
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,720
in the day.
It was called Escape Inn and we
351
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,280
were the we were the house band
for that bar.
352
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,920
When we would go there on the
during the week to that was like
353
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,640
you walk in and everybody was
like, hey.
354
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:29,240
And and no matter how crowd it
was, everyone at that bar knew
355
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,640
our names.
So that was Escape Inn.
356
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,960
It's no longer there.
Well, no.
357
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:39,760
Anyway, let's move on from the
guess I'll just buy AI instead
358
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,120
department.
None other than Netflix has
359
00:18:42,120 --> 00:18:45,640
withdrawn their bid for Warner
Brothers due to the hullabaloo
360
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,960
with Paramount Pictures also
wanting to buy the company and
361
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:54,040
instead use that money to buy
Ben Affleck's IAI company named
362
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:58,000
Interpositive.
Apparently that comes with Ben
363
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,680
as a senior advisor as well as
the entire company's team.
364
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:06,160
Ben Affleck says in 2022.
I spent a lot of time observing
365
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,400
the the early rise of AI in
production.
366
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,640
For artists to apply these tools
toward telling the stories we
367
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,440
dedicate our lives to, they need
to be purpose built to represent
368
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,200
and protect all the qualities
that make a great story.
369
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,280
These tools deliberately avoid
replicating performances.
370
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,880
Instead, they focus on
techniques that help directors
371
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,560
and editors maintain narrative
continuity with lighting
372
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,840
adjustments and scene continuity
while protecting artistic
373
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,160
control.
Wow, wow, wow.
374
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,600
Wow, so, so the Warner Brothers
thing is not going through this
375
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,440
whole thing that that's been
talked about.
376
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,720
And I've been getting texts
about from different actors
377
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,960
said, oh, well, 'cause I, you
know, I've been kind of down on
378
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,120
the whole.
And if you listen to the show at
379
00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:54,840
all, the whole acting thing, and
I, I say that a lot of actors
380
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,000
should consider.
And thank you.
381
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:56,840
I got the warning.
Thank you.
382
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,440
Yeah.
I'm having like, like lights in
383
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,560
my face. 5 minutes.
I got it, I got it.
384
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,200
All right.
So, you know a lot of actors if
385
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,880
I had a son or a daughter and.
Let's say they wanted to raise a
386
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,360
family.
I'm sorry, but I would tell them
387
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,800
don't, don't put all of your
eggs into one basket on acting
388
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,760
because acting already is.
And it's I, I think is going to
389
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:23,920
become for the, for most people,
probably for 99.99 or 99.9% of
390
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,800
actives, they're just going to
be like any other job.
391
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:28,880
And it's there.
You'll get paid maybe a wage
392
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,360
that you'd make at the grocery
store or or waiting tables at an
393
00:20:32,360 --> 00:20:34,960
average restaurant, not a top
restaurant.
394
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,360
Absolutely.
So, so I was saying this, you
395
00:20:38,360 --> 00:20:41,200
know, because there's a lot of
actors I'm around and a lot of
396
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,360
them still have the Rose colored
glasses on which that hope is
397
00:20:44,360 --> 00:20:48,520
going to lead to your downfall.
Like hope is it's the whole
398
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,120
basis of disappointment.
So I try to get rid of people's
399
00:20:52,120 --> 00:20:55,520
hope if I think that it's going
to lead them down the wrong road
400
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,880
and wasting thousands of dollars
and wasting years of their life.
401
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,160
So you can still do acting for
fun and all that.
402
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,280
But I'm like, how many roles are
there going to be?
403
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,520
Especially when Sony and all
these big companies that were
404
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,040
making, you know, 30 movies a
year, 27 movies a year there,
405
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,480
some of them are making in the
single digit movies a year.
406
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,080
So if you're only making like 8
movies a year, how many actors
407
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,120
you going to hire?
So that breaks it down for
408
00:21:15,120 --> 00:21:18,080
anyone listening who's not
really in the business.
409
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,120
So I got a text back from
someone who's put a lot of money
410
00:21:22,120 --> 00:21:25,280
into acting and she said, Oh,
well, you know, Warner Brothers
411
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,800
might buy up Netflix.
But according to this Warner
412
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,000
Brothers, that deal is not going
to happen.
413
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,440
So, you know, all these star
eyed actors, I, I think are
414
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,080
going to be like, OK, reality
check as of today, What's
415
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,320
today's date?
March 29th, 2026.
416
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,000
So, so now there's an AI
company, Ben Affleck's AI
417
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,840
company Interpositive is going
to be bought by Netflix.
418
00:21:48,360 --> 00:21:50,720
I'm sorry, my brain is broken.
That's why I'm rereading this.
419
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:51,720
I.
Can't believe that you know
420
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,760
what?
Am I the only one with this
421
00:21:55,760 --> 00:22:03,680
analogy that this AI, My analogy
is it's a Ouija board.
422
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,080
And you know how the demons help
you in the beginning on the
423
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:08,360
Ouija board.
OK, sure.
424
00:22:08,360 --> 00:22:11,320
And then they take over and
cripple your soul, right?
425
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,680
Well, that's what I think AI is
going to be doing.
426
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:19,880
It's all nice and and someday,
someday it's going to be in
427
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,760
charge of all the global nuclear
weapons and annihilate us.
428
00:22:24,120 --> 00:22:27,000
Right, right.
I mean, AI would do a better job
429
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,880
than some people at some tasks
because some people.
430
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,040
Are just virtually worthless.
No, no, every.
431
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,480
Everyone has worth.
Everyone is a specialist.
432
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,320
No, but only in this situation
just.
433
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,520
Saying right, right, right.
But but also, so when you say
434
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,760
it's going to end everything,
you mean actors?
435
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,040
Is that what?
You're, I mean life itself.
436
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:47,160
You mean life itself?
I.
437
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:51,920
Mean life itself, I think it's
going to get to the point where
438
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,280
they're not going to be able to
control it, because when they
439
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,720
try to shut something down, it's
going to sense that and it's
440
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,080
going to fix it.
Interesting.
441
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,760
Yeah, just watch.
Watch Colossus to form and
442
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:05,840
Budget.
Well, it's definitely going to
443
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,240
be probably shutting down
people's bank accounts and
444
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,320
people's cars that are drunk.
So I think the bank account
445
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:12,800
freezes.
I can't imagine that not
446
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,040
happening.
And on some beneficial level, my
447
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,560
final thought would be that,
hey, if you're a criminal and
448
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,760
you're coming with all the
committing all these fines,
449
00:23:20,120 --> 00:23:21,240
maybe I don't want you on the
road.
450
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,840
So maybe I do want AI permitting
you, prohibiting you from
451
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,440
driving.
So that's one good side effect
452
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,920
is that, you know, it'll keep
some people off the road.
453
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:31,800
So Charlie final thought, we're
going to have the show.
454
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,240
Just thank you.
Thank you for being across the
455

nice to everybody.
456
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,000

00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:46,040
Came from the Radio.
I'm here at LICH Long Island
479
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:51,200
Convention of Horror and I am
here with actress Liana.
480
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:57,000
Ileana Peralia Friedman and
we're here at the Long Island
481
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,360
Horror Convention, and I'm so
happy to be here.
482
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,160
Yeah, and, and and thank you for
helping me with that last name.
483
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:09,920
And the G is silent and she is a
multi talented actress and she's
484
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,760
in a movie called Stream and
she's going to talk to us about
485
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,840
it right now.
Yes, so I was in the movie
486
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:21,200
stream.
It's part of a new franchise and
487
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,960
it's now free on Amazon Prime.
You could watch it and it's
488
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,360
really great.
It has so many amazing huge
489
00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:32,880
names in the horror community
and it was a pleasure to be a
490
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,880
part of it and advertise it
today at the convention.
491
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,480
Now let me ask you something.
What is this?
492
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,800
What is this movie?
What is the premise of this
493
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:48,360
movie?
So the premise of the movie is
494
00:25:48,360 --> 00:25:52,040
that basically there's this
family and they go on a vacation
495
00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:57,720
to a hotel and the hotel
basically gets kind of overrun
496
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,760
and shut down and all the doors
are locked.
497
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,080
And there's this game going on
behind the scenes.
498
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:09,760
It's on a streaming platform of
players and killers that try to
499
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,520
see, you know, who could kill
the most amount of people in the
500
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,560
hotel.
And I'm one of the killers,
501
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,040
which I was so happy to be a
part of because it's a way more
502
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,960
fun to be a killer than a
victim.
503
00:26:21,360 --> 00:26:24,960
So I was lucky enough to do that
as Player 3.
504
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,600
And yeah, that's basically the
premise.
505
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:35,120
Now let me ask you something.
Are you what other movies have
506
00:26:35,120 --> 00:26:39,160
you been in or what other movies
are down the down the road for
507
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:43,480
you?
So just what started me in
508
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:49,800
acting, my start was definitely
when I was younger in pageants
509
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:55,120
from doing pageantry.
I started doing modeling,
510
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,320
commercials, TV work when I was
younger, though being on
511
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,000
toddlers and TRS was really fun.
That was my first, like huge
512
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:08,440
filming, you know, projects that
I did and just being in front of
513
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,200
the cameras, being on set, that
was really fun for me.
514
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,280
And then it led to do
commercials and other fake
515
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,400
things.
So yeah, just then I met the
516
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,200
stream fuzz on the Lens guys on
a different set, and just
517
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,240
through staying in touch I was
able to be a part of stream.
518
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,920
Now people want to find out
about you.
519
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,160
They want to see you.
They want to know what movies
520
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,680
you are in, where can they reach
you?
521
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:38,000
What's social media?
So I, you can find me on
522
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:44,720
Instagram, on TikTok, I love to
post and my username is Liana
523
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:51,320
LIANAP, but just the middle
initial P And then my last name
524
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:56,000
is Freedmen.
And so for most of my projects,
525
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,440
I, you know, before I got
married, I'm using Paralia.
526
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,600
But slowly but surely, the new
last name is making an
527
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:02,880
appearance, and it's easier to
say.
528
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,400
Beautiful, thank you so much for
taking time to talk to us.
529
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:12,560
I wish you much success in your
future and just enjoy the rest
530
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,240
of the convention.
Thank you so much.
531
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:15,400
You too.
I appreciate it.
532
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:20,120
This is Charlie Saladino from It
Came From the Radio here at Long
533
00:28:20,120 --> 00:28:23,880
Island Convention of Horror.
Back to you in the studio, Mark.
534
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,880
This is Michael Bell, the voice
of Duke from GI Joe.
535
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,920
And I am here at Cradle Com and
I am with It Came from the
536
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,880
Radio.
Now back to our show.
537
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,840
This is Charlie Saladino from It
Came From the Radio.
538
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:47,560
I'm Here Live at Lynch Long
Islands Convention of Horrors,
539
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:51,640
and I'm here with and very happy
to be here with Jamie Root,
540
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,080
cinematographer, director,
producer.
541
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,800
And Jamie, how are you?
Hi, thanks so much for having
542
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:58,480
me.
I'm doing well.
543
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,440
How are you doing?
Terrific.
544
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,200
What's the project you've talked
to us about?
545
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,920
Stream.
Yeah, so Stream is a horror
546
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:11,040
movie that we shot back during
COVID in 2021 and it came out in
547
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:15,720
theaters in 2024.
And now it's free for viewers to
548
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:20,200
watch on Amazon Prime currently.
And we're the same team behind
549
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,280
the the same production team
behind the Terrifier Movies
550
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:27,000
Stream.
We've decided we shot between
551
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:31,680
the Terrifier one and two, while
right after Terrifier 2 wrapped,
552
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:36,640
we started shooting Stream.
So this is a special effects on
553
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,680
stream.
We're done by Damien, the
554
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,680
director for Terrifier, a
special effects artist.
555
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,800
And then Michael Levy is the
director of stream.
556
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,240
But yeah, it's a it's a good,
it's a cool concept.
557
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,560
It's basically these these
killers get unleashed in this
558
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:58,000
hotel and and their primary goal
is to basically kill as many
559
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,480
people in the most creative ways
as possible.
560
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,120
And the whole event is being
live streams to the dark web.
561
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:08,640
So you have all these people
watching this the stream
562
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:13,080
happening in real time and
placing their bets on on, you
563
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,280
know, who's going to win, who's
going to survive the most
564
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:19,160
creative kills and all these
different people in in these
565
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,960
positions of power and these
corporations are all involved.
566
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:28,400
So it's definitely like, it's
like a homage to the 80s flasher
567
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:34,600
vibe but while still maintaining
that modern day technology tone,
568
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,800
if that makes sense.
This had to be, this had to be
569
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,480
hard shooting it when you guys
shot it during that time, yeah.
570
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,120
Yeah.
So during COVID, it was a really
571
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,720
polarizing experience, I think
because we had, you know, some,
572
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:53,200
some cast and crew who were more
lackadaisical with the, with the
573
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,480
PPE and the masks and sort of
like, oh, whatever, we're
574
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,320
quarantining here in the hotel
anyways where we're shooting.
575
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,480
And then you have the other, the
other half of that who were very
576
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:08,040
much like wanted to, to respect
the, the wearing the mask and
577
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:09,560
keeping the distance and
everything.
578
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,760
Any shooting, anyone that has
shot a movie during COVID, I
579
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:17,360
commend them because it is a
very challenging feat and it
580
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,560
definitely, it definitely was a
challenge for us too, but we
581
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,600
overcame it and I think stream
is something that we're all
582
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:27,200
we're all pretty proud of.
Jamie, I want you to introduce
583
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,960
this very beautiful lady.
She's an actress in the movie
584
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:32,960
and I want to talk to her about
that.
585
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:33,960
Sure.
Yeah.
586
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:38,800
So this is Allison.
She was in stream towards the
587
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:43,320
towards the end of the movie and
then also another movie that
588
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,560
same production company worked
on called Screen Boat.
589
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,920
She's the lead, the star of the
movie, so I will let you say hi
590
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,800
to her now.
Allison, how are you and how was
591
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,520
it to work with this lady?
She's the best.
592
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,400
I'm so good.
And yeah, Jamie's awesome.
593
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:03,280
She's definitely, she's a very
strong female presence with a
594
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,760
lot of experience and knowledge
in a chaotic boys room
595
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,640
sometimes, and she keeps those
guys in line.
596
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,040
And she's definitely a fabulous
director, fabulous
597
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,760
cinematographer and writer and
she's working on her own stuff
598
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:21,840
and I, I'm so excited to see
what is in store for her next.
599
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,000
Tell me about your your part in
this movie.
600
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:31,400
My part in this movie, so it is
a yes towards the end of the
601
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:37,160
film, and it's sort of a kind of
a cliffhanger type scene.
602
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:43,200
I play a running woman screaming
and crying in terror as the
603
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:48,080
killer comes and approaches.
Bill Mosley's also involved in
604
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,320
that.
And Terry Kaiser.
605
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,840
And who am I missing?
Tim Curry.
606
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,000
Yes.
So got to work with three
607
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,560
legends in horror and that was
phenomenal.
608
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:02,120
Yeah, it was a great time.
Well, I wish you both a lot of
609
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,600
luck.
Now social media, where can
610
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,680
people see you girls and see
your products?
611
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,480
Yeah.
So first thing they could do if
612
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,480
they wanted to follow on
Instagram or Facebook is look up
613
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:18,720

the Lens productions and then my
615

offerings produced during four
638
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,880
decades to an ever increasing
list of satisfied clients.
639
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,560
Starting as an apprentice to the
sign and design trade as a
640
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:50,239
teenager, his appetite for the
unusual and challenging led him
641
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:54,920
to many sensational projects.
A skilled painter, he designs
642
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,880
large wall graphics and theater
sets, themed interior and
643
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,360
exterior murals in amusement
parks and restaurants, crafted
644
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:07,000
delicate gold leaf window
treatments and gilded ornamental
645
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:11,040
on antique fire engines when the
computer took over the sign
646
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,360
game.
He established himself in the RV
647
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:18,120
industry as the most prolific
airbrush mural artist in the
648
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:22,240
country, producing over 2000
high quality painted works on
649
00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:26,160
the exteriors of motorhomes.
That led to other even more
650
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,840
spectacular projects including
the decoration of retail
651
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,960
environments, residential
murals, and delicate vehicular
652
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:38,360
and motorcycle pinstriping
portraits, imagery and custom
653
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,640
paint of all kinds.
I don't know anyone who does
654
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,160
what you do.
Welcome to a came from the radio
655
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,240
Davis.
Well, thank you.
656
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:48,560
Thank you for having me here
today.
657
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:51,200
You're thank you.
Thank you.
658
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,880
Quick question, do you enjoy all
the work that you do because
659
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,520
you're doing a lot?
I certainly do.
660
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,760
I'm a very, very creative
person.
661
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:03,880
And apparently creative people
are just creative in all areas.
662
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:09,160
And I'm the kind of guy I wake
up in the morning and I'm on and
663
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,120
I'm ready.
I just stay on all the time.
664
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:15,640
So yeah, definitely.
Yeah, I had a feeling you were
665
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,800
going to say that.
I mean, that would really, that
666
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,680
would really suck if you didn't
like doing this.
667
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:23,480
Because I I went to, I went to
American University.
668
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,520
It was like my easy school.
So my minor was art.
669
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,720
So I spent a lot of time
painting, studio art, painting
670
00:36:29,720 --> 00:36:31,640
and drawing.
And when you don't want to
671
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,600
paint, I mean, drawing is one
thing.
672
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,200
You could pick it up, you could
put it down.
673
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,760
You could, you know, go
masturbate, you know, do
674
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,280
whatever you want, you know,
come back to it.
675
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:39,960
What?
Whatever.
676
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,440
I'm just saying.
But when it comes to painting,
677
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,280
it's a big commitment.
It's a whole set up, sometimes
678
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,560
like an hour set up and then you
got to put it down.
679
00:36:47,720 --> 00:36:50,000
And when you don't want to do
it, which I didn't want to do my
680
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,960
final project for studio art,
that's a whole nother story.
681
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,160
It, it, I, I did my whole entire
final project in 24 hours.
682
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:02,320
So and I did not want to do it.
And it sucks when painting, when
683
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,000
you don't want to paint.
So first question is when you
684
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,000
when you have to paint
something, 'cause you got all
685
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,920
these clients all over the
country, you're travelling all
686
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,320
over the place and you got to
paint something.
687
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,720
Is there any times that you
didn't want to do it?
688
00:37:14,720 --> 00:37:16,480
And like, how did you deal with
that?
689
00:37:17,720 --> 00:37:22,920
Oh, you, you learn early on that
that the mood that you're in's
690
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,680
got nothing to do with whether
you're going to be painting or
691
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,600
not.
Yeah, that's kind of a luxury
692
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:34,880
of, of maybe a different kind of
a person.
693
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:40,200
But yeah, a dedicated person
who's intensely creative.
694
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:44,760
It's like I've got enthusiasm,
you know, when somebody says,
695
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:49,600
hey, would you paint Saint
Francis of Assisi preaching to
696
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,360
the birds on the back of my
motorhome?
697
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,960
I'd, I'd go, yeah, that'd be
fun.
698
00:37:55,640 --> 00:38:00,040
You know where 8 out of 10 other
artists would go?
699
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,120
No, no, I couldn't possibly do
something like that.
700
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,840
So yeah, it's just a challenge.
It's another challenge.
701
00:38:08,240 --> 00:38:12,600
And what I've done with my
entire lifetime is transformed
702
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:16,360
challenges into opportunities.
Love that.
703
00:38:17,720 --> 00:38:20,240
Yeah, I love that.
You know, one thing I do just
704
00:38:20,240 --> 00:38:23,280
quick aside and it's it's
something that I, I talked
705
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,520
about, I'm thinking about a lot
the last month is, you know, a
706
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:30,240
lot of times people in your
industry and and mine, they'll
707
00:38:30,240 --> 00:38:32,560
give you offers.
You'll get offers all the time.
708
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,080
And sometimes offers are great.
You know, acting in a movie,
709
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,000
you're doing special effects or,
you know, using my house's
710
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,120
location and you know, who is
it, the amount of money,
711
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,160
whatever.
And the offers are good.
712
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:43,360
It's good.
It's great.
713
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,680
Let's do it.
But I'd say at least 50% of the
714
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,680
time, if not more, because now
we have social media and
715
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:51,320
everyone and their mother.
Contacts you.
716
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,720
You're going to get crazy
offers.
717
00:38:53,720 --> 00:38:58,880
And what I've done is if the
offer is not good, then I will
718
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,840
find a way to make it good.
And or I'll, I'll either I'll do
719
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,240
like some type of counter offer
and maybe I'll even ignore the
720
00:39:06,240 --> 00:39:09,400
original offer.
I'll say, well, maybe not this,
721
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,800
but how about this?
So do you ever do any of that
722
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:16,520
where you have to change things
around and someone's asking you
723
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,280
to do something that you don't
really want to do, but you're
724
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:22,680
like, how do I do this instead?
Well, typically what happens is
725
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:27,840
people will come to me with
either a clear idea about what
726
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:33,640
that is that they want me to do,
or they don't have a clear idea
727
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,800
about what they want me to do,
but they want me to do
728
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,600
something.
And then there are others that
729
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:45,200
come to me and they have a bad
idea about what they want me to
730
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,680
do.
And I discovered it's my
731
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:52,360
responsibility to guide them
over to something that's going
732
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:56,920
to end up qualifying as a good
thing to do, because after all,
733
00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,240
my name goes on it.
Exactly.
734
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:03,160
Yeah, you got.
A nice.
735
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:07,800
Whole bunch of different kinds
of transactions like that.
736
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,560
So yeah, definitely.
Have you ever had anyone that
737
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,840
was a control freak and they
were holding on to this horrible
738
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:18,320
idea and you had to really
maneuver that one?
739
00:40:19,240 --> 00:40:22,120
Oh, definitely, yeah.
I've dealt with every kind of
740
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,440
personality that there is.
So definitely, yeah.
741
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,560
And so there are a lot there.
You know, it's just like with
742
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:36,040
there's a saying, you know, some
people appreciate presence and
743
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:40,480
people appreciate when you're,
you know, when you go away.
744
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,840
You know, it's the same thing
with all the different kinds of
745
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,400
customers, the variety of people
there are in the world.
746
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,360
So yeah.
And in my line of work, it just,
747
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:55,720
it requires me processing and
never ending stream of of new
748
00:40:55,720 --> 00:40:59,000
customers.
So yeah, I've had plenty of
749
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,880
opportunity to and that's kind
of interesting.
750
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:06,080
But typically the artistic
personality wants to be
751
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:12,760
reclusive and, and, and with on
and I've just I've I've
752
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,760
transformed that tendency into
becoming a people person.
753
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:23,480
One of the most gratifying parts
of the job is the amount of
754
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:28,000
satisfaction and and like my
customers get very, very happy
755
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:32,640
with what it is that I do.
And that's provides fuel for me
756
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:38,720
to continue as and especially
strive to, to do an even better
757
00:41:38,720 --> 00:41:41,400
job this time than I did last
time.
758
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:46,120
It's just because of the the
level of happiness I'm able to
759
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,440
promote in my customer.
Right.
760
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:54,000
So now when you're working with
new people all the time as I do,
761
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,200
and you're working on new
projects all the time and you're
762
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:02,160
creating things that maybe never
existed, you're inventing things
763
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:07,680
essentially you have to, I think
you have to have the thought in
764
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:11,000
your head, I can do this, this
is going to happen.
765
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:15,000
It's going to be worth my time
before you make that investment
766
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:21,360
into actually doing it.
So how did you originally have
767
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:25,080
that self belief and confidence
in yourself that you'd be able
768
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:30,680
to do even your first project?
Well, I think that it started
769
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:35,880
with Even as a child, I was
unstoppable.
770
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:42,720
I grew up on a university campus
and the other sorority houses
771
00:42:42,720 --> 00:42:45,360
and the fraternity houses for
homecoming.
772
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:49,520
Every year they would big build
a big display in their front
773
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:53,360
yard.
So as a six year old, I
774
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:59,040
commandeered a large cardboard
box and I took some crayons and
775
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,560
I made my own display in our
front yard.
776
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:07,040
And then for every year I would
build an even more elaborate
777
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,480
display.
So by the time I was 10 years
778
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:14,040
old, I had an electric motor and
the darn thing was animated and
779
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:18,760
I had a steam and it was all.
So I've always been creative and
780
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:22,320
unstoppable.
And then I became a drummer in
781
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,280
high school and I got the
brilliant idea that I should be
782
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:29,680
playing the drums in the circus
band, accenting the efforts of
783
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:33,080
the performers and stuff.
So it's 16 years old.
784
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:37,000
I was, I spent the summer on the
circus and it just, it just
785
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,640
kept.
It's like Domino's falling down
786
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,280
my whole career.
They're just yet another
787
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,280
incredible thing to apply myself
to.
788
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:49,680
Yeah.
I mean, that's, that's how my
789
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,040
life has been.
And I remember my mom at a
790
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,600
younger age when I didn't
exactly know what to do
791
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,720
professionally.
I always was active like you
792
00:43:56,720 --> 00:43:59,000
creating something.
Always.
793
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:02,800
I had sales, I had businesses, I
had jewelry companies, Magna
794
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,400
companies, all this stuff.
But professionally, to make
795
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:06,800
money, I didn't really know what
to do.
796
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:10,680
I remember one of my mom's piece
of advice was just just do
797
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:12,400
something.
Everything leads to something
798
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,160
else.
And just like you said, Domino's
799
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,960
falling, you know, I had to pee
and I went into a gym and
800
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,160
watching sports clubs and I was
not a trainer.
801
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,960
I was training my boyfriend at
Merrill Lynch and a woman asked
802
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,760
me to train her.
But I went to pee and I ended up
803
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,160
becoming a trainer, ended up
teaching the main morning
804
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:32,360
classes for 2 1/2 years and, and
becoming a certified trainer and
805
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,360
going on Fox News and a couple
months later and all this stuff.
806
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:38,920
So you, you know, sometimes just
one thing, Lisa, next, if you're
807
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,920
open, you're involved.
And I guess if you have somewhat
808
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:45,480
of a good attitude and people
don't hate you, you know that
809
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,680
that happens.
You know, used to like, you're a
810
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:53,320
likable guy now.
Yeah, that's what happens.
811
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,320
Yeah, as.
Far as a likability, you know,
812
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,720
do you think that some of your
success in being constantly
813
00:44:59,720 --> 00:45:04,440
employed has to do with people
liking you or just liking your
814
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:08,280
work?
Yeah, I think it's a combination
815
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:13,240
because certainly the the
personality is what allows them
816
00:45:13,240 --> 00:45:17,400
to consider that, hey, this
might be a guy that I'd like to
817
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:23,640
to have create something.
And definitely so, yeah,
818
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,400
likeability, being a people
person.
819
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:30,600
And what's interesting was as a
child, I wasn't, I wasn't that
820
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,680
interested in other people
because of this line of work.
821
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:38,800
It was necessary for me to
become people person.
822
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:42,880
And today I've transformed.
I've done a 180 from when I was
823
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:46,800
a kid, you know, and I am
genuinely interested in other
824
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:50,240
people today.
Yeah, it seems like that.
825
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:57,000
To get a little more into that
other parts of your persona,
826
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:01,560
your personality, the way of
life that you had before, you're
827
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,560
working with all these different
people as an entrepreneur that
828
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:09,080
you had to put aside in order to
work with the public as a
829
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:13,840
businessman.
Yes, my personality and my
830
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:20,760
embracing the, the, the personal
aspect of the customer relation
831
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,640
has just transformed me because
when I was a child, I was a
832
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:28,280
little bit reluctant.
But then because of the line of
833
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:34,640
work and having to process so
many customers, I've actually
834
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:39,160
done a 180 and I've transformed
from somebody who's reluctant
835
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:42,800
into somebody who's genuinely
interested in other people.
836
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:49,000
And the way that I, the way that
I treat this, this, I guess this
837
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:53,000
responsibility I have with the
talent that I've been blessed
838
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:58,560
with is finding ways to be a
blessing to other people.
839
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:03,640
I love that.
Yes, yes, my dad said something
840
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:07,760
along the lines of, you know,
every, every room you walk into
841
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:11,800
or everyone that you meet, they
should feel thankful that they
842
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:15,720
got to meet you and that's kind
of how you should live your
843
00:47:15,720 --> 00:47:17,920
life.
So I try to walk into every room
844
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:21,320
and at least try to make
something better, even if it's
845
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:23,600
picking off a piece of lint off
the floor.
846
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:26,400
Just do something, you know,
Because you know, we're all
847
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:29,240
humans and we're breathing and
we're flushing toilets and we're
848
00:47:29,240 --> 00:47:32,160
using water.
So we're all creating waste and
849
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:34,400
pollution, no, no matter how
good of a person you are.
850
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:38,560
So therefore I feel like to
counteract it, the bare minimum
851
00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:41,760
is trying to contribute
something to this society.
852
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:46,200
Yeah, definitely.
So now your work, what's, what's
853
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,160
one of the most interesting
pieces of work that you've done
854
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:53,040
to you?
One of the most well horses are
855
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,840
my absolute favorite thing of
all to paint.
856
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,160
I love.
Horses, Well, I've had horses
857
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:02,960
for 30 years, so I, I just love
horses so.
858
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:06,400
And there's actually a painting
in my home.
859
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:14,280
I had this idea of a yin Yang
type of a design with a winged
860
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:20,480
horse and a seahorse.
So I, I, it's something that I,
861
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:25,720
I that I started several years
ago.
862
00:48:25,720 --> 00:48:29,040
It took several years to and if
you want to see it, I can show
863
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:32,280
it to you I think.
Sure, let's see, I think I can.
864
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:37,720
Show it to you if I walk over
here with the laptop and can you
865
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:42,520
see it maybe?
A little bit, Yeah, a little
866
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,040
bit.
You can even send a picture.
867
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:45,960
We could put it at the bottom of
the interview.
868
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:46,880
Yeah.
You know what?
869
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:49,080
Send send me a picture of that.
I'll put that at the bottom of
870
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:50,720
the interview Like that.
That's cool.
871
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:52,480
Really pretty.
I like that.
872
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,320
That was kind of a way cool
thing to do.
873
00:48:55,320 --> 00:49:00,640
I was inspired and you know,
sometimes I get an inspiration
874
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,120
and it just doesn't go away, so
I know.
875
00:49:03,240 --> 00:49:04,480
Yeah.
Act on it.
876
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:07,760
And so that's.
That's how that painting got
877
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,560
done.
It got, it got started.
878
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:15,360
I got about 3/4 of the way
through and then and then leaned
879
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,280
it up somewhere and forgot about
it for a couple years and then
880
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:22,320
somebody gave me that beautiful
frame and then that prompted me
881
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:24,560
to get it done.
So I.
882
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:26,920
Put it in the frame.
So yeah.
883
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:28,560
And the next thing you know,
it's done.
884
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:30,680
It's hanging on the wall.
That's cool.
885
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,000
Now you, you're, you're a bit of
a character.
886
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,760
You're interesting.
You know, I like sketch comedy.
887
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,840
I could see you being some
character or maybe I would draw
888
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:42,840
on you for some of my personas.
You ever do self portraits or
889
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:45,680
any acting?
Some acting.
890
00:49:46,240 --> 00:49:49,600
Or self portraits of yourself.
Anything featuring yourself in
891
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:53,560
your work?
Oh well, memoirs I've been
892
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:55,920
writing.
I'm an off, I'm an author.
893
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:57,560
I'm also.
In all three.
894
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:02,080
Memoirs 3 Memoirs written.
I'm working on three more and.
895
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:05,400
Yeah, let's hear about that.
I've become quite a storyteller.
896
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:15,040
Well, I, I've actually had quite
an interesting life and it
897
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:19,560
started around the circus and
then I became fascinated with
898
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:23,320
not only horses, but especially
sign painting.
899
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:26,200
And, and then I've had to evolve
as the years.
900
00:50:26,240 --> 00:50:30,160
It seems like every decade I had
to evolve into something,
901
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,960
something else.
And so, and it's all, it's all
902
00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:38,320
been super interesting and, and
I have a passion for, you know,
903
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:41,600
all of those things, I guess
that that are disappearing, you
904
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:47,440
know, the crafts type and then
the the classic horsemanship
905
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:51,240
and, and a lot of things that
are that have been a, a big part
906
00:50:51,240 --> 00:50:56,560
of civilization and mankind and
all that kind of stuff.
907
00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,000
And, and so I just have a
passion.
908
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,560
And so now I'm taking all of
that interesting information
909
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:09,720
that I've accumulated during my
whole life, plus the this, this,
910
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:13,320
I guess you'd say the scene,
the, the, the way that I
911
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:17,000
accumulated that.
And I'm putting it into the form
912
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:23,520
of stories to with the
underlying theme, because the
913
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:27,320
end result of me going through
all of this stuff was it made me
914
00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:30,160
a better person.
And so now I'm writing books,
915
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:35,960
and the motive is to make it so
that the reader is inspired and
916
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:41,640
they benefit from what the theme
of each one of the books are.
917
00:51:43,240 --> 00:51:47,920
Now someone who's.
It's like that.
918
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:52,640
The book I, I've written a book,
it's called Kinker Circusing the
919
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:56,800
70s and it's about a 10 year
period that started when I was a
920
00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:01,280
teenager and it goes on to about
a 10 year period.
921
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:05,400
And it was pretty much all about
my life with the circus.
922
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:09,960
All that chaos and turbulence
and excitement and adventure and
923
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:14,360
all of the, all of the aspects
of the circus back in the 1970s
924
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:19,520
that are pretty much gone today.
And there's an underlying theme
925
00:52:20,240 --> 00:52:23,880
because as a child, I did, I had
this feeling like maybe I didn't
926
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:27,320
quite belong anywhere.
And then.
927
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:29,960
So this is like the underlying
theme.
928
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:34,040
And then the payoff at the
conclusion of the book has to do
929
00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:38,160
with discovering that yes,
indeed, I do belong.
930
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:42,120
And not only do I belong, but I
belong in a big way.
931
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:44,760
So.
And which is hopefully to
932
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:48,560
inspire the reader, too.
Yeah.
933
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,160
Yeah, that's, that's such a
great feeling, 'cause you know,
934
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,960
I'll be 42 soon, which I see is
very young.
935
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,280
You know, my view of 42 is like,
you might as well be 10 years
936
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,680
old.
But looking back, I was thinking
937
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:01,800
about this earlier of my high
school years.
938
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:05,040
I was just like my senior year,
I was ready to give up.
939
00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,320
And I was just like, so it's
very easy to feel that way as a
940
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:11,040
kid.
So it is really important for
941
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:16,880
readers, listeners, people to
have examples like you and me
942
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:21,520
and everyone to share how maybe
their paths turned out in a way
943
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:23,960
where you're like, oh, this is
where I belong.
944
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:27,560
This makes sense.
This isn't all a waste of time,
945
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:29,200
you know.
Yep.
946
00:53:29,240 --> 00:53:34,400
And all of those things I went
through were all designed for
947
00:53:34,720 --> 00:53:42,480
for an even higher purpose then,
yeah, then simply being like
948
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:45,360
inconvenient or something that I
didn't like.
949
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,960
And no, it was designed for my
growth.
950
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:52,120
My personal growth occurred as
the result of going through all
951
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,880
of those things.
So then all of a sudden we can
952
00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:59,560
become grateful for everything
we've gone through during our
953
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,840
life.
I feel the same way and that you
954
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,960
actually set yourself up
perfectly from my final
955
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:12,000
question, which was going to be
do you believe in God or destiny
956
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:16,280
or fate or things that are meant
to be in 2 minutes?
957
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:20,120
Yeah, definitely.
It's really interesting.
958
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:24,680
I have.
My daddy was a preacher and I
959
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:27,560
didn't want to have anything to
do with the church when I was a
960
00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:31,520
kid because they were all I was.
I guess I was sensitive and I
961
00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:36,320
noticed things and stuff.
So it wasn't until I was
962
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:41,680
introduced to a practical
relationship with God through
963
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:47,360
the recovery fellowship of a A
and that's where I was
964
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:51,640
introduced to.
I guess I would be more of a
965
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:55,880
metaphysical thinker than a than
a religion type guy.
966
00:54:55,880 --> 00:55:03,520
I'm more of A I have AI, have a
personal spiritual relationship
967
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,360
with a higher power today.
That's.
968
00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:13,080
That is my that has given me a
design for living my life that I
969
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:17,080
really enjoy today.
So yeah, hopefully that's a that
970
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,800
was a good answer to that
question.
971
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,560
But do of course, yeah, I sure
do.
972
00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:26,760
And it's, and what has happened
is the years have gone by, that
973
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:31,440
relationship has become more and
more important to me.
974
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:39,120
That's really cool.
I are your memoirs able to be
975
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:41,240
listened to or do we have to
read them?
976
00:55:41,240 --> 00:55:45,880
Do you have any books on tape?
Not yet, but that's one of my
977
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:49,400
ambitions is to make all of the
books into audio books.
978
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:51,520
Yeah.
And people tell me I'm really
979
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,480
good at it.
Yeah, yeah, I think you should
980
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:58,440
do it as your own voice.
That's exactly right, yeah.
981
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,360
Yeah, you don't need someone
else to narrate your story.
982
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:02,960
Why don't you tell your own
story?
983
00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:05,080
That's right.
Yeah, Yeah.
984
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:07,280
And.
It doesn't have to be perfect,
985
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:10,480
you know, You can, you can pop
your peas or I don't know.
986
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,880
I mean, obviously you want to
have high quality recordings,
987
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,640
but I think just the way you're
doing it right now informally is
988
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:17,040
great.
But OK, I'm not.
989
00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:19,480
Yeah.
Anyway, we're at the end of the
990
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:21,320
interview.
Thank you very much.
991
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:24,240

crazies on the road while you're

00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:55,200

00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:06,800
I don't like to torture the
guests.
1005
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,840
I'm not a sadist.
I'm not a sadist and I always
1006
00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:12,200
worry that I'm going to torture
the guest.
1007
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:13,560
So I'm I'm glad I didn't torture
you.

00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:16,520

00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,160

special man, our senior
8
00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:55,840

10
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,360
He's not on the line.
Well, I, I was trying to be
11
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,200
optimistic so it it's just me
and Charlie here, but our
12
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,320

Yes, I am very impressed with
Mark.
16
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,880
He didn't call me 8000 times to
make sure I was going to make
17
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,400
the show.
You know, I almost called him on
18
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,600
my way here and I figured, you
know what, let's have a little
19
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,440
fun here.
Let's see who shows up.
20
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,360
I wasn't sure.
If it was going to be you or
21
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,000
Francis Bonet, and I was happy
to, I'd be happy to see either
22
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,360

As always, we start off with the
sad news.
58
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,880
Newscaster and anchor Ernie
Anastos died recently from
59
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,240
pneumonia.
At one point in his career,
60
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:49,440
Ernie anchored on 4 New York
networks, ABCCBS, FOX and UPN.
61
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,600
Of note, he was also a
children's author and host of
62
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,160
his own nationally syndicated TV
show, Positively the America.
63
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,880
In 2017, New York City Mayor
Bill de Blasio, my favorite,
64
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,840
honored and asked those by
designating every designated
65
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,520
every March 21st to be Ernie
Anasto's day.
66
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,040
He was 82.
I knew him, I worked with him.
67
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,400
He was amazing.
He was a gentleman's gentleman,
68
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:19,399
the nicest guy in the world, and
everybody loved him.
69
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,240
Including de Blasio.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
70
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:24,920
Well, yes, de Blasio loved him
too.
71
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,640
Because he honored him.
Well, yeah.
72
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,520
It's a big honor.
I don't count that.
73
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,640
I want to be honored by de
Blasio, but that's another
74
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,720
story.
I would love to be honored.
75
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,520
By the Blasio, anyway.
My mother loved him and I, I
76
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,520
told him my mom loves you.
He stopped what he was doing,
77
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,720
did an autographed picture to my
mom.
78
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,200
He was, he was, he was great.
He was a good guy.
79
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,320
I miss him.
What was one of your favorite
80
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,080
things about him?
You know, I love nice people and
81
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:53,400
I love just, you know, just
being nice and talking, very
82
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,600
personable.
And he was just an all around
83
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,880
nice guy.
I mean, the first time I met
84
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,200
him, I got a big hello from him
and he knew I worked there and
85
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,000
he was just, it was one of the
people who worked with him.
86
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:09,400
So and just, it's very sad.
I was very sad when I heard that
87
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,840
news.
Well, like attracts like and you
88
00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:14,480
are certainly a very nice and
very personable guy and you're a
89
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,280
delight to talk to.
And I'm so glad that we met by
90
00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:19,960
chance.
So you know, of course you're
91
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,920
going to be attracted to people
who are.
92
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,040
Also, and Ditto with you.
I thank you.
93
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:30,520
It was like, yeah, I was so glad
our boss asked you to be on the
94
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,640
show with us.
That was a shock to me.
95
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:34,920
Yeah, keep it coming.
Keep it coming.
96
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,680
And I was just listening to
something about love bombing on
97
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,080
the way here.
I'm not really into love
98
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:40,680
bombing, but it's just on my
mind.
99
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,760
All right, last bit of sad news,
Actor Nicholas Brendan also died
100
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,800
recently.
He actually died in his sleep.
101
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,600
Well, Nicholas was in a handful
of movies and TV shows.
102
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,080
He's perhaps best known for his
role as Kevin Lynch in 21
103
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,760
episodes of the CBS series
Criminal Minds, and of course,
104
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,720
as Zander Harris, all 144
episodes of the series Buffy the
105
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,920
Vampire Slayer, which ran from
1997 to 2003.
106
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,000
Of note, Nicholas has an
identical twin brother.
107
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,040
He was 54.
Wow, that's that's scary.
108
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:17,200
That's and, and again, another,
another good actor, Another.
109
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,400
I mean, I remember hearing about
that.
110
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,000
And what's her name?
Sarah Michelle Gella.
111
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,720
Yes.
One play Buffy did such a
112
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,520
wonderful, such a wonderful
tribute to him.
113
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,240
Yeah.
Well. 54 and and do they know
114
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,200
they just he died in his sleep
are there?
115
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,960
Any, I don't know, that's that's
like scary to me. 54 yeah, I I
116
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,000
mean what what causes that And
you know.
117
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:45,760
Well, you know, there's a lot of
speculations, but this isn't the
118
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,200
show for those type of
speculations, Mark, probably.
119
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,160
Wouldn't want.
That, but if, if I was writing
120
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,440
the show as I, you know, this
would be a totally different
121
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:53,520
show.
We go off on a tangent, but I'm
122
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,040
going to go on a quick, quick,
quick tangent.
123
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,520
I was supposed to be acting
today.
124
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,840
Oh my God.
And I actually didn't want to
125
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:01,840
really do it, but that's a
different part.
126
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:06,840
But my Co star died.
My Co star also died suddenly
127
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,960
and he's younger than 54.
I don't know his exact age, but
128
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,520
yeah, there's a lot of people
dying suddenly.
129
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:15,920
So RIP.
I don't.
130
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,120
I don't have all the answers,
but someone hopefully will get
131
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,680
to the bottom of this.
Yeah, let's get away from the
132
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,560
sad.
Yeah, so, OK, so we're going to
133
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,000
take a quick break, A quick
break and we're going to be
134
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,120

I'm sitting across from you.
180
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,160
All right, so let's get into it.
We have some not so sad news.
181
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,520
Let's start with Cradle Con.
You've been to Cradle Con.
182
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,400
We had a lot of fun there and
Cradle Con returns to the Cradle

And you are listening to a cane
189
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,200
from the radio.
And again, we are with Charlie.
190
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,600
You know what, I got to just
take a quick note and it just
191
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,760
acknowledges I have notes from
Mark right here and in the
192
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,600
script without any type of
designation that it's separate.
193
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,200
It says, take a pause and then
say, so I'm all be funneled
194
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:48,320
here.
So if I sound like I don't know
195
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,120
what I'm talking about, I'm
reading a script, ladies and
196
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:51,600
gentlemen.
All right, well, Mark's going to
197
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:52,920
love that.
All right, let's go back to the
198
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,880
show.
And then it says and then say.
199
00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:00,880
So now let's do the regular
news, Pause from the, then point
200
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,280
to Brian and he will play the
net.
201
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,120
Clip.
From the that's a lot of nuts
202
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:06,800
department.
OK, enough with the nonsense.
203
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,400
Let's try to leave all the the
4th wall.
204
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,200
We're going to stop breaking the
4th wall and go back to the
205
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,160
radio show.
All right.
206
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,160
The new sci-fi film project Hail
Mary has taken the number one
207
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:20,440
spot in the domestic box office,
pulling in $80.5 million in
208
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,640
ticket sales in its first week
of release, beating out the new
209
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,720
animated film Hoppers, which
came at the number two spot,
210
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,560
making an additional $17.8
million in its second week of
211
00:11:30,560 --> 00:11:32,520
release.
For those of you keeping track,
212
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,920
I'm definitely not.
Avatar is still the highest
213
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:40,720
grossing film of this year with
$403.8 million, of which $153.5
214
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:45,600
million was this year, followed
by an aforemeshioned Hoppers
215
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:51,480
with $120.1 million.
Well, I know two people who saw
216
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,440
Hail Mary, like yesterday.
Oh yeah.
217
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,360
And they came out, they said it
was fabulous and.
218
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,640
What did they say about it?
What was so fabulous?
219
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,360
That they paid that much money
and they loved it.
220
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,920
Oh, OK.
Yeah, I I didn't see the movie.
221
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,640
I have no idea what it's about,
but.
222
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,800
I'm going to have to call Hail
Mary for this radio show.
223
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,360
Hail Mary.
Somebody help me.
224
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,320
Somebody help me?
You throw the script up in the
225
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,200
air and then Hail Mary hope it
comes down and you know what
226
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,600
makes sense?
For anyone who wants to write in
227
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,160
or call in, I'm really curious.
As I was driving here it was
228
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:26,040
wondering who which listeners?
I really want to know how much
229
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,440
money every movie is making
every week.
230
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:29,160
I want to.
Know.
231
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,120
Yeah, I who?
Cares who does it.
232
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,000
I, that's my favorite line when
they said this movie made $80
233
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,360
million and I'm thinking I'm not
getting any of that.
234
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,120
So you know, who I why should I
care?
235
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:42,840
Well.
Please, I I am begging you,
236
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,520
begging you.
I'm even going to put my e-mail
237
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,960
in here.
You can personally e-mail me
238
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:51,840
JFELDY dot BE like to be or not
to be.healthy@gmail.com LD dot E
239
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,920
dot healthy.
And please tell me what do you
240
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,720
think about finding out how much
money each movie is making?
241
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,120
All right, next, moving on.
The Oscars have come and gone,
242
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,680
but more importantly, that means
that the Razzies have also been
243
00:13:02,680 --> 00:13:05,520
given out.
So this year's clear cut winner
244
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,400
is War of the Worlds with five
awards, worst picture, Director,
245
00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:14,240
actor, remake, RIP off or
Sequel, and worst Screenplay of
246
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,360
note.
The movie was nominated for six
247
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:21,600
Razzies but wound up losing to
all 7 dwarfs For the worst
248
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:26,240
screen combo, War of the Worlds
was Ice Cube and his zoom camera
249
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:27,680
the Razzies.
Did you check it out?
250
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:33,160
No, I don't, but Mark usually
has a full rundown of who won
251
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:38,280
and usually when you when you
the razzies of for really
252
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:42,240
terrible movies.
But that sort of boosts their
253
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,680
what do you their reputation.
I would love people.
254
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,200
Yeah.
Oh yeah, man.
255
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,320
I would like a okay, what would
you like?
256
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,520
What would you prefer, a Razzy
or a Golden Globe?
257
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,080
Depends on if I what I was going
for.
258
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,080
OK, you're an actor.
You're a lead actor in the
259
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,240
remake of Titanic.
They do Titanic too.
260
00:14:00,680 --> 00:14:02,800
Titanic.
You play Leos character.
261
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,120
Search.
From So what do you want to
262
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:05,400
Razi?
You want Leo.
263
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,680
Leo comes back to the surface.
As you.
264
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:09,680
Where did she go?
No, you're the new star.
265
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,040
Well, I would.
You know what they say, Jen?
266
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,680
Bad press is good press.
What it?
267
00:14:14,680 --> 00:14:15,880
What is?
I thought it was you can't turn
268
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,360
home to a housewife.
Yeah.
269
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,240
Isn't that what they say?
You know what they say?
270
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:20,640
No.
I think yes.
271
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,440
So which one is it you want a
Razzie?
272
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,240
Yeah, because any mention is
good mention.
273
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,280
Not a Golden Globe.
Yeah, a big one.
274
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,960
If I wanted more money and I've
wanted prestige, I'll go with
275
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,040
the Golden Globe.
I'll give you a prestige trial.
276
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,840
I'll give you a prestige.
All right now from that, it's
277
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,240
not a done deal until it airs
department.
278
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,440
None other than actress Sarah
Michelle Gellar has announced
279
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:46,520
via Twitter or or the show is is
is very old school that the new
280
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,040
Buffy series is no longer in
development.
281
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,320
Sarah says no one saw this
coming, including the head of
282
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,520
Searchlight.
I I got the call as we were
283
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,800
stepping onto stage for the
premiere of their own movie.
284
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:02,080
And it's also the weekend of
Chloe going to the Oscars as a
285
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,480
best director nominee for
Hamnet.
286
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,160
For them to call us on the
Friday of what should have been
287
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,520
Chloe's victory lap for an
incredible film and my world
288
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,560
premiere of something that I
work very hard for is that says
289
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,120
something.
We had an executive on her show
290
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,040
who was not only not a fan of
the original, but was proud to
291
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,000
constantly remind us that he had
never seen the entirety of the
292
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,280
series and how it wasn't for
him.
293
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,680
Wow.
That's very hard when you're
294
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,680
taking a property, this is
Morrison, Michelle Keller.
295
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,800
That's very hard when you're
taking a property that is as
296
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,640
beloved as Buffy, not just to
the world, but to me and Chloe.
297
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,840
So that tells you the uphill
battle that we've been fighting
298
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,240
since day one when your
executive is literally proud to
299
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,120
tell you that he didn't watch
it.
300
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,600
What would?
Oh, I mean, I'm an actor, so I
301
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,400
have feelings on this.
But again, I'm going to throw it
302
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,800
back to you as you're going to
be the new Leonardo DiCaprio.
303
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,680
OK, So Charles Saldino's in
studio.
304
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,800
And now you're going to be just
pretend you're Leo DiCaprio and
305
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,840
you're in this series with Sarah
Michelle Gellar.
306
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,400
How do you feel?
Your your your your your
307
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,440
director, your executives don't
even really care about the show.
308
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:13,280
I would feel like I am so glad
not to be a part of this.
309
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:17,160
Now, if the executive feels like
this, what could he do to us
310
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,160
down the road?
You know, I'm glad it didn't get
311
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,160
off the thing only to disappoint
us later.
312
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,840
And then I would go and take a
Louisville Slugger and beat the
313
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:29,760
living crap out of the
executive.
314
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,840
No, I wouldn't do.
That, well, actually related
315
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,880
notion, you know, sometimes they
say, you know, they don't want
316
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,160
you to study or they don't want
you to study with other teachers
317
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,160
because then you come in with
preconceived notions.
318
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,160
No, I can't make that fit here.
I'm trying to be devil's
319
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:44,040
advocate.
I can't.
320
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,880
So therefore, really the only
solution, if I was part of this
321
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,840
as an actor or makeup artist or
really at all, I would kidnap
322
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:57,200
the executive and then I would
sit him down and I get him
323
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,120
really high.
I'm marijuana, you know,
324
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:03,120
nothing, nothing too scary.
And I'd make him watch the whole
325
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,160
Buffy series and and make sure
he saw everything.
326
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,560
That's good that you use
marijuana because then he won't
327
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,280
get Glaipoma watching the
series.
328
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,560
So if he's nauseous, then he
won't be nauseous.
329
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:15,480
And you know, some scenes are
kind of scary.
330
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,880
Some people get nauseous when
they're too scared so.
331
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,680
You got to, you got to remember
something people like who said
332
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,920
Cheers wasn't going to Channel
7, who said Cheers wasn't going
333
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,880
to make it.
We got to get rid of it.
334
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,240
Let's take it off the air.
Channel 4 saw that and said,
335
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,760
what are you crazy?
And they, they took it.
336
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,600
They had a big hit with Cheers.
Yeah.
337
00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:41,960
And and.
Sometimes I like to go where
338
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,480
nobody knows my name.
That's my theme song.
339
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,080
Sometimes I like to go where
nobody knows my name.
340
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,200
Yeah, I went to that place in
Boston and nobody knew my name.
341
00:17:51,360 --> 00:17:53,360
Isn't it kind of great though?
Yeah, right.
342
00:17:53,360 --> 00:17:56,080
Because when everyone knows how
you guys, hey, how you doing?
343
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:57,800
Where?
Everybody knows my name.
344
00:17:58,320 --> 00:17:59,760
Where?
Where do you go where everyone
345
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,360
knows your name?
Oh my God, everyone right?
346
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,920
You're known.
Where do I go where everybody
347
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,200
knows my family's house?
Your family's house.
348
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:08,920
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They go in there.
349
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,240
They go.
Hey, yeah, no, I had a bar back
350
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,720
in the day.
It was called Escape Inn and we
351
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,280
were the we were the house band
for that bar.
352
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,920
When we would go there on the
during the week to that was like
353
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,640
you walk in and everybody was
like, hey.
354
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:29,240
And and no matter how crowd it
was, everyone at that bar knew
355
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,640
our names.
So that was Escape Inn.
356
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,960
It's no longer there.
Well, no.
357
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:39,760
Anyway, let's move on from the
guess I'll just buy AI instead
358
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,120
department.
None other than Netflix has
359
00:18:42,120 --> 00:18:45,640
withdrawn their bid for Warner
Brothers due to the hullabaloo
360
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,960
with Paramount Pictures also
wanting to buy the company and
361
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:54,040
instead use that money to buy
Ben Affleck's IAI company named
362
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:58,000
Interpositive.
Apparently that comes with Ben
363
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,680
as a senior advisor as well as
the entire company's team.
364
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:06,160
Ben Affleck says in 2022.
I spent a lot of time observing
365
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,400
the the early rise of AI in
production.
366
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,640
For artists to apply these tools
toward telling the stories we
367
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,440
dedicate our lives to, they need
to be purpose built to represent
368
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,200
and protect all the qualities
that make a great story.
369
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,280
These tools deliberately avoid
replicating performances.
370
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,880
Instead, they focus on
techniques that help directors
371
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,560
and editors maintain narrative
continuity with lighting
372
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,840
adjustments and scene continuity
while protecting artistic
373
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,160
control.
Wow, wow, wow.
374
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,600
Wow, so, so the Warner Brothers
thing is not going through this
375
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,440
whole thing that that's been
talked about.
376
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,720
And I've been getting texts
about from different actors
377
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,960
said, oh, well, 'cause I, you
know, I've been kind of down on
378
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,120
the whole.
And if you listen to the show at
379
00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:54,840
all, the whole acting thing, and
I, I say that a lot of actors
380
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,000
should consider.
And thank you.
381
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:56,840
I got the warning.
Thank you.
382
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,440
Yeah.
I'm having like, like lights in
383
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,560
my face. 5 minutes.
I got it, I got it.
384
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,200
All right.
So, you know a lot of actors if
385
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,880
I had a son or a daughter and.
Let's say they wanted to raise a
386
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,360
family.
I'm sorry, but I would tell them
387
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,800
don't, don't put all of your
eggs into one basket on acting
388
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,760
because acting already is.
And it's I, I think is going to
389
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:23,920
become for the, for most people,
probably for 99.99 or 99.9% of
390
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,800
actives, they're just going to
be like any other job.
391
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:28,880
And it's there.
You'll get paid maybe a wage
392
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,360
that you'd make at the grocery
store or or waiting tables at an
393
00:20:32,360 --> 00:20:34,960
average restaurant, not a top
restaurant.
394
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,360
Absolutely.
So, so I was saying this, you
395
00:20:38,360 --> 00:20:41,200
know, because there's a lot of
actors I'm around and a lot of
396
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,360
them still have the Rose colored
glasses on which that hope is
397
00:20:44,360 --> 00:20:48,520
going to lead to your downfall.
Like hope is it's the whole
398
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,120
basis of disappointment.
So I try to get rid of people's
399
00:20:52,120 --> 00:20:55,520
hope if I think that it's going
to lead them down the wrong road
400
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,880
and wasting thousands of dollars
and wasting years of their life.
401
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,160
So you can still do acting for
fun and all that.
402
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,280
But I'm like, how many roles are
there going to be?
403
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,520
Especially when Sony and all
these big companies that were
404
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,040
making, you know, 30 movies a
year, 27 movies a year there,
405
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,480
some of them are making in the
single digit movies a year.
406
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,080
So if you're only making like 8
movies a year, how many actors
407
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,120
you going to hire?
So that breaks it down for
408
00:21:15,120 --> 00:21:18,080
anyone listening who's not
really in the business.
409
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,120
So I got a text back from
someone who's put a lot of money
410
00:21:22,120 --> 00:21:25,280
into acting and she said, Oh,
well, you know, Warner Brothers
411
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,800
might buy up Netflix.
But according to this Warner
412
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,000
Brothers, that deal is not going
to happen.
413
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,440
So, you know, all these star
eyed actors, I, I think are
414
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,080
going to be like, OK, reality
check as of today, What's
415
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,320
today's date?
March 29th, 2026.
416
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,000
So, so now there's an AI
company, Ben Affleck's AI
417
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,840
company Interpositive is going
to be bought by Netflix.
418
00:21:48,360 --> 00:21:50,720
I'm sorry, my brain is broken.
That's why I'm rereading this.
419
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:51,720
I.
Can't believe that you know
420
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,760
what?
Am I the only one with this
421
00:21:55,760 --> 00:22:03,680
analogy that this AI, My analogy
is it's a Ouija board.
422
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,080
And you know how the demons help
you in the beginning on the
423
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:08,360
Ouija board.
OK, sure.
424
00:22:08,360 --> 00:22:11,320
And then they take over and
cripple your soul, right?
425
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,680
Well, that's what I think AI is
going to be doing.
426
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:19,880
It's all nice and and someday,
someday it's going to be in
427
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,760
charge of all the global nuclear
weapons and annihilate us.
428
00:22:24,120 --> 00:22:27,000
Right, right.
I mean, AI would do a better job
429
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,880
than some people at some tasks
because some people.
430
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,040
Are just virtually worthless.
No, no, every.
431
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,480
Everyone has worth.
Everyone is a specialist.
432
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,320
No, but only in this situation
just.
433
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,520
Saying right, right, right.
But but also, so when you say
434
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,760
it's going to end everything,
you mean actors?
435
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,040
Is that what?
You're, I mean life itself.
436
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:47,160
You mean life itself?
I.
437
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:51,920
Mean life itself, I think it's
going to get to the point where
438
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,280
they're not going to be able to
control it, because when they
439
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,720
try to shut something down, it's
going to sense that and it's
440
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,080
going to fix it.
Interesting.
441
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,760
Yeah, just watch.
Watch Colossus to form and
442
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:05,840
Budget.
Well, it's definitely going to
443
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,240
be probably shutting down
people's bank accounts and
444
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,320
people's cars that are drunk.
So I think the bank account
445
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:12,800
freezes.
I can't imagine that not
446
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,040
happening.
And on some beneficial level, my
447
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,560
final thought would be that,
hey, if you're a criminal and
448
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,760
you're coming with all the
committing all these fines,
449
00:23:20,120 --> 00:23:21,240
maybe I don't want you on the
road.
450
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,840
So maybe I do want AI permitting
you, prohibiting you from
451
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,440
driving.
So that's one good side effect
452
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,920
is that, you know, it'll keep
some people off the road.
453
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:31,800
So Charlie final thought, we're
going to have the show.
454
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,240
Just thank you.
Thank you for being across the
455
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,080
table from me #1 and just be
nice to everybody.

475
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,160
Hi, I'm Olivia Yonkers from Star
Trek Picard, and you're
476
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,280
listening to It Came from the
Radio.
477
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,880
Now back to our show.
This is Charlie Saladino from It
478
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:46,040
Came from the Radio.
I'm here at LICH Long Island
479
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:51,200
Convention of Horror and I am
here with actress Liana.
480
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:57,000
Ileana Peralia Friedman and
we're here at the Long Island
481
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,360
Horror Convention, and I'm so
happy to be here.
482
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,160
Yeah, and, and and thank you for
helping me with that last name.
483
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:09,920
And the G is silent and she is a
multi talented actress and she's
484
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,760
in a movie called Stream and
she's going to talk to us about
485
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,840
it right now.
Yes, so I was in the movie
486
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:21,200
stream.
It's part of a new franchise and
487
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,960
it's now free on Amazon Prime.
You could watch it and it's
488
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,360
really great.
It has so many amazing huge
489
00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:32,880
names in the horror community
and it was a pleasure to be a
490
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,880
part of it and advertise it
today at the convention.
491
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,480
Now let me ask you something.
What is this?
492
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,800
What is this movie?
What is the premise of this
493
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:48,360
movie?
So the premise of the movie is
494
00:25:48,360 --> 00:25:52,040
that basically there's this
family and they go on a vacation
495
00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:57,720
to a hotel and the hotel
basically gets kind of overrun
496
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,760
and shut down and all the doors
are locked.
497
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,080
And there's this game going on
behind the scenes.
498
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:09,760
It's on a streaming platform of
players and killers that try to
499
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,520
see, you know, who could kill
the most amount of people in the
500
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,560
hotel.
And I'm one of the killers,
501
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,040
which I was so happy to be a
part of because it's a way more
502
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,960
fun to be a killer than a
victim.
503
00:26:21,360 --> 00:26:24,960
So I was lucky enough to do that
as Player 3.
504
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,600
And yeah, that's basically the
premise.
505
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:35,120
Now let me ask you something.
Are you what other movies have
506
00:26:35,120 --> 00:26:39,160
you been in or what other movies
are down the down the road for
507
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:43,480
you?
So just what started me in
508
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:49,800
acting, my start was definitely
when I was younger in pageants
509
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:55,120
from doing pageantry.
I started doing modeling,
510
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,320
commercials, TV work when I was
younger, though being on
511
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,000
toddlers and TRS was really fun.
That was my first, like huge
512
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:08,440
filming, you know, projects that
I did and just being in front of
513
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,200
the cameras, being on set, that
was really fun for me.
514
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,280
And then it led to do
commercials and other fake
515
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,400
things.
So yeah, just then I met the
516
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,200
stream fuzz on the Lens guys on
a different set, and just
517
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,240
through staying in touch I was
able to be a part of stream.
518
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,920
Now people want to find out
about you.
519
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,160
They want to see you.
They want to know what movies
520
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,680
you are in, where can they reach
you?
521
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:38,000
What's social media?
So I, you can find me on
522
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:44,720
Instagram, on TikTok, I love to
post and my username is Liana
523
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:51,320
LIANAP, but just the middle
initial P And then my last name
524
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:56,000
is Freedmen.
And so for most of my projects,
525
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,440
I, you know, before I got
married, I'm using Paralia.
526
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,600
But slowly but surely, the new
last name is making an
527
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:02,880
appearance, and it's easier to
say.
528
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,400
Beautiful, thank you so much for
taking time to talk to us.
529
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:12,560
I wish you much success in your
future and just enjoy the rest
530
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,240
of the convention.
Thank you so much.
531
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:15,400
You too.
I appreciate it.
532
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:20,120
This is Charlie Saladino from It
Came From the Radio here at Long
533
00:28:20,120 --> 00:28:23,880
Island Convention of Horror.
Back to you in the studio, Mark.
534
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,880
This is Michael Bell, the voice
of Duke from GI Joe.
535
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,920
And I am here at Cradle Com and
I am with It Came from the
536
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,880
Radio.
Now back to our show.
537
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,840
This is Charlie Saladino from It
Came From the Radio.
538
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:47,560
I'm Here Live at Lynch Long
Islands Convention of Horrors,
539
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:51,640
and I'm here with and very happy
to be here with Jamie Root,
540
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,080
cinematographer, director,
producer.
541
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,800
And Jamie, how are you?
Hi, thanks so much for having
542
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:58,480
me.
I'm doing well.
543
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,440
How are you doing?
Terrific.
544
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,200
What's the project you've talked
to us about?
545
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,920
Stream.
Yeah, so Stream is a horror
546
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:11,040
movie that we shot back during
COVID in 2021 and it came out in
547
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:15,720
theaters in 2024.
And now it's free for viewers to
548
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:20,200
watch on Amazon Prime currently.
And we're the same team behind
549
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,280
the the same production team
behind the Terrifier Movies
550
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:27,000
Stream.
We've decided we shot between
551
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:31,680
the Terrifier one and two, while
right after Terrifier 2 wrapped,
552
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:36,640
we started shooting Stream.
So this is a special effects on
553
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,680
stream.
We're done by Damien, the
554
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,680
director for Terrifier, a
special effects artist.
555
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,800
And then Michael Levy is the
director of stream.
556
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,240
But yeah, it's a it's a good,
it's a cool concept.
557
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,560
It's basically these these
killers get unleashed in this
558
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:58,000
hotel and and their primary goal
is to basically kill as many
559
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,480
people in the most creative ways
as possible.
560
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,120
And the whole event is being
live streams to the dark web.
561
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:08,640
So you have all these people
watching this the stream
562
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:13,080
happening in real time and
placing their bets on on, you
563
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,280
know, who's going to win, who's
going to survive the most
564
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:19,160
creative kills and all these
different people in in these
565
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,960
positions of power and these
corporations are all involved.
566
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:28,400
So it's definitely like, it's
like a homage to the 80s flasher
567
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:34,600
vibe but while still maintaining
that modern day technology tone,
568
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,800
if that makes sense.
This had to be, this had to be
569
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,480
hard shooting it when you guys
shot it during that time, yeah.
570
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,120
Yeah.
So during COVID, it was a really
571
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,720
polarizing experience, I think
because we had, you know, some,
572
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:53,200
some cast and crew who were more
lackadaisical with the, with the
573
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,480
PPE and the masks and sort of
like, oh, whatever, we're
574
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,320
quarantining here in the hotel
anyways where we're shooting.
575
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,480
And then you have the other, the
other half of that who were very
576
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:08,040
much like wanted to, to respect
the, the wearing the mask and
577
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:09,560
keeping the distance and
everything.
578
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,760
Any shooting, anyone that has
shot a movie during COVID, I
579
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:17,360
commend them because it is a
very challenging feat and it
580
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,560
definitely, it definitely was a
challenge for us too, but we
581
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,600
overcame it and I think stream
is something that we're all
582
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:27,200
we're all pretty proud of.
Jamie, I want you to introduce
583
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,960
this very beautiful lady.
She's an actress in the movie
584
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:32,960
and I want to talk to her about
that.
585
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:33,960
Sure.
Yeah.
586
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:38,800
So this is Allison.
She was in stream towards the
587
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:43,320
towards the end of the movie and
then also another movie that
588
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,560
same production company worked
on called Screen Boat.
589
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,920
She's the lead, the star of the
movie, so I will let you say hi
590
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,800
to her now.
Allison, how are you and how was
591
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,520
it to work with this lady?
She's the best.
592
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,400
I'm so good.
And yeah, Jamie's awesome.
593
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:03,280
She's definitely, she's a very
strong female presence with a
594
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,760
lot of experience and knowledge
in a chaotic boys room
595
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,640
sometimes, and she keeps those
guys in line.
596
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,040
And she's definitely a fabulous
director, fabulous
597
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,760
cinematographer and writer and
she's working on her own stuff
598
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:21,840
and I, I'm so excited to see
what is in store for her next.
599
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,000
Tell me about your your part in
this movie.
600
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:31,400
My part in this movie, so it is
a yes towards the end of the
601
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:37,160
film, and it's sort of a kind of
a cliffhanger type scene.
602
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:43,200
I play a running woman screaming
and crying in terror as the
603
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:48,080
killer comes and approaches.
Bill Mosley's also involved in
604
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,320
that.
And Terry Kaiser.
605
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,840
And who am I missing?
Tim Curry.
606
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,000
Yes.
So got to work with three
607
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,560
legends in horror and that was
phenomenal.
608
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:02,120
Yeah, it was a great time.
Well, I wish you both a lot of
609
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,600
luck.
Now social media, where can
610
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,680
people see you girls and see
your products?
611
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,480
Yeah.
So first thing they could do if
612
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,480
they wanted to follow on
Instagram or Facebook is look up
613
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:18,720
fuzz on the Lens productions.
So we're our Instagram, our
614
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,680
social media, Facebook fuzz on
the Lens productions and then my
615
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:26,280
personal Instagram is at JF
root.
616
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:30,120
So J fruit basically you find me
there.
617
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:34,600
And you, young lady?
So it'd be my name which is
618
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:40,160
Allison with 2L's and my last
name which is PITTEL Patel.
619
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,560
And that's just my Instagram
handle.
620
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,120
Well, beautiful.
Thank you ladies for taking time
621
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:50,480
talking with us and we hope to
see you guys in the future more,
622
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:51,880

Thank you.
623
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:53,040
Thank.
You.
624
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:58,600
This is Charlie Saladino from It
Came from the Radio at Long
625
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:02,000
Island Convention of Horror.
Back to you in the studio, Mark.
626
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,160
Hi, I'm Elena Watko.
I play Hyrel on Star Trek
627
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,280
Discovery.
And you're listening to It Came
628
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,920
from the Radio.
Now back to our show.
629
00:34:14,679 --> 00:34:16,679
You know, you're listening to it
came from the radio.
630
00:34:16,679 --> 00:34:18,760
You got.
Well, you do know this is
631
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,360
Jennifer Elise Feldman.
I'm here with a very interesting
632
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:25,560
guy, Dave Letterfly.
Letterfly Notary.
633
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,000
I don't see if I can even say
his name.
634
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:29,560
So who is he?
Well, I'm going to tell you who
635
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,040
he is and then we'll get to the
interview.
636
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,760
The career path of Dave
Letterfly Notary has been as
637
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:38,520
diverse as the many creative
offerings produced during four
638
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,880
decades to an ever increasing
list of satisfied clients.
639
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,560
Starting as an apprentice to the
sign and design trade as a
640
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:50,239
teenager, his appetite for the
unusual and challenging led him
641
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:54,920
to many sensational projects.
A skilled painter, he designs
642
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,880
large wall graphics and theater
sets, themed interior and
643
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,360
exterior murals in amusement
parks and restaurants, crafted
644
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:07,000
delicate gold leaf window
treatments and gilded ornamental
645
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:11,040
on antique fire engines when the
computer took over the sign
646
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,360
game.
He established himself in the RV
647
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:18,120
industry as the most prolific
airbrush mural artist in the
648
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:22,240
country, producing over 2000
high quality painted works on
649
00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:26,160
the exteriors of motorhomes.
That led to other even more
650
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,840
spectacular projects including
the decoration of retail
651
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,960
environments, residential
murals, and delicate vehicular
652
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:38,360
and motorcycle pinstriping
portraits, imagery and custom
653
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,640
paint of all kinds.
I don't know anyone who does
654
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,160
what you do.
Welcome to a came from the radio
655
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,240
Davis.
Well, thank you.
656
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:48,560
Thank you for having me here
today.
657
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:51,200
You're thank you.
Thank you.
658
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,880
Quick question, do you enjoy all
the work that you do because
659
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,520
you're doing a lot?
I certainly do.
660
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,760
I'm a very, very creative
person.
661
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:03,880
And apparently creative people
are just creative in all areas.
662
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:09,160
And I'm the kind of guy I wake
up in the morning and I'm on and
663
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,120
I'm ready.
I just stay on all the time.
664
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:15,640
So yeah, definitely.
Yeah, I had a feeling you were
665
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,800
going to say that.
I mean, that would really, that
666
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,680
would really suck if you didn't
like doing this.
667
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:23,480
Because I I went to, I went to
American University.
668
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,520
It was like my easy school.
So my minor was art.
669
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,720
So I spent a lot of time
painting, studio art, painting
670
00:36:29,720 --> 00:36:31,640
and drawing.
And when you don't want to
671
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,600
paint, I mean, drawing is one
thing.
672
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,200
You could pick it up, you could
put it down.
673
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,760
You could, you know, go
masturbate, you know, do
674
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,280
whatever you want, you know,
come back to it.
675
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:39,960
What?
Whatever.
676
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,440
I'm just saying.
But when it comes to painting,
677
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,280
it's a big commitment.
It's a whole set up, sometimes
678
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,560
like an hour set up and then you
got to put it down.
679
00:36:47,720 --> 00:36:50,000
And when you don't want to do
it, which I didn't want to do my
680
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,960
final project for studio art,
that's a whole nother story.
681
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,160
It, it, I, I did my whole entire
final project in 24 hours.
682
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:02,320
So and I did not want to do it.
And it sucks when painting, when
683
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,000
you don't want to paint.
So first question is when you
684
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,000
when you have to paint
something, 'cause you got all
685
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,920
these clients all over the
country, you're travelling all
686
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,320
over the place and you got to
paint something.
687
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,720
Is there any times that you
didn't want to do it?
688
00:37:14,720 --> 00:37:16,480
And like, how did you deal with
that?
689
00:37:17,720 --> 00:37:22,920
Oh, you, you learn early on that
that the mood that you're in's
690
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,680
got nothing to do with whether
you're going to be painting or
691
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,600
not.
Yeah, that's kind of a luxury
692
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:34,880
of, of maybe a different kind of
a person.
693
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:40,200
But yeah, a dedicated person
who's intensely creative.
694
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:44,760
It's like I've got enthusiasm,
you know, when somebody says,
695
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:49,600
hey, would you paint Saint
Francis of Assisi preaching to
696
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,360
the birds on the back of my
motorhome?
697
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,960
I'd, I'd go, yeah, that'd be
fun.
698
00:37:55,640 --> 00:38:00,040
You know where 8 out of 10 other
artists would go?
699
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,120
No, no, I couldn't possibly do
something like that.
700
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,840
So yeah, it's just a challenge.
It's another challenge.
701
00:38:08,240 --> 00:38:12,600
And what I've done with my
entire lifetime is transformed
702
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:16,360
challenges into opportunities.
Love that.
703
00:38:17,720 --> 00:38:20,240
Yeah, I love that.
You know, one thing I do just
704
00:38:20,240 --> 00:38:23,280
quick aside and it's it's
something that I, I talked
705
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,520
about, I'm thinking about a lot
the last month is, you know, a
706
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:30,240
lot of times people in your
industry and and mine, they'll
707
00:38:30,240 --> 00:38:32,560
give you offers.
You'll get offers all the time.
708
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,080
And sometimes offers are great.
You know, acting in a movie,
709
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,000
you're doing special effects or,
you know, using my house's
710
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,120
location and you know, who is
it, the amount of money,
711
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,160
whatever.
And the offers are good.
712
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:43,360
It's good.
It's great.
713
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,680
Let's do it.
But I'd say at least 50% of the
714
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,680
time, if not more, because now
we have social media and
715
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:51,320
everyone and their mother.
Contacts you.
716
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,720
You're going to get crazy
offers.
717
00:38:53,720 --> 00:38:58,880
And what I've done is if the
offer is not good, then I will
718
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,840
find a way to make it good.
And or I'll, I'll either I'll do
719
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,240
like some type of counter offer
and maybe I'll even ignore the
720
00:39:06,240 --> 00:39:09,400
original offer.
I'll say, well, maybe not this,
721
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,800
but how about this?
So do you ever do any of that
722
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:16,520
where you have to change things
around and someone's asking you
723
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,280
to do something that you don't
really want to do, but you're
724
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:22,680
like, how do I do this instead?
Well, typically what happens is
725
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:27,840
people will come to me with
either a clear idea about what
726
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:33,640
that is that they want me to do,
or they don't have a clear idea
727
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,800
about what they want me to do,
but they want me to do
728
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,600
something.
And then there are others that
729
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:45,200
come to me and they have a bad
idea about what they want me to
730
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,680
do.
And I discovered it's my
731
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:52,360
responsibility to guide them
over to something that's going
732
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:56,920
to end up qualifying as a good
thing to do, because after all,
733
00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,240
my name goes on it.
Exactly.
734
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:03,160
Yeah, you got.
A nice.
735
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:07,800
Whole bunch of different kinds
of transactions like that.
736
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,560
So yeah, definitely.
Have you ever had anyone that
737
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,840
was a control freak and they
were holding on to this horrible
738
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:18,320
idea and you had to really
maneuver that one?
739
00:40:19,240 --> 00:40:22,120
Oh, definitely, yeah.
I've dealt with every kind of
740
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,440
personality that there is.
So definitely, yeah.
741
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,560
And so there are a lot there.
You know, it's just like with
742
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:36,040
there's a saying, you know, some
people appreciate presence and
743
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:40,480
people appreciate when you're,
you know, when you go away.
744
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,840
You know, it's the same thing
with all the different kinds of
745
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,400
customers, the variety of people
there are in the world.
746
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,360
So yeah.
And in my line of work, it just,
747
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:55,720
it requires me processing and
never ending stream of of new
748
00:40:55,720 --> 00:40:59,000
customers.
So yeah, I've had plenty of
749
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,880
opportunity to and that's kind
of interesting.
750
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:06,080
But typically the artistic
personality wants to be
751
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:12,760
reclusive and, and, and with on
and I've just I've I've
752
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,760
transformed that tendency into
becoming a people person.
753
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:23,480
One of the most gratifying parts
of the job is the amount of
754
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:28,000
satisfaction and and like my
customers get very, very happy
755
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:32,640
with what it is that I do.
And that's provides fuel for me
756
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:38,720
to continue as and especially
strive to, to do an even better
757
00:41:38,720 --> 00:41:41,400
job this time than I did last
time.
758
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:46,120
It's just because of the the
level of happiness I'm able to
759
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,440
promote in my customer.
Right.
760
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:54,000
So now when you're working with
new people all the time as I do,
761
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,200
and you're working on new
projects all the time and you're
762
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:02,160
creating things that maybe never
existed, you're inventing things
763
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:07,680
essentially you have to, I think
you have to have the thought in
764
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:11,000
your head, I can do this, this
is going to happen.
765
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:15,000
It's going to be worth my time
before you make that investment
766
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:21,360
into actually doing it.
So how did you originally have
767
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:25,080
that self belief and confidence
in yourself that you'd be able
768
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:30,680
to do even your first project?
Well, I think that it started
769
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:35,880
with Even as a child, I was
unstoppable.
770
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:42,720
I grew up on a university campus
and the other sorority houses
771
00:42:42,720 --> 00:42:45,360
and the fraternity houses for
homecoming.
772
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:49,520
Every year they would big build
a big display in their front
773
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:53,360
yard.
So as a six year old, I
774
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:59,040
commandeered a large cardboard
box and I took some crayons and
775
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,560
I made my own display in our
front yard.
776
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:07,040
And then for every year I would
build an even more elaborate
777
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,480
display.
So by the time I was 10 years
778
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:14,040
old, I had an electric motor and
the darn thing was animated and
779
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:18,760
I had a steam and it was all.
So I've always been creative and
780
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:22,320
unstoppable.
And then I became a drummer in
781
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,280
high school and I got the
brilliant idea that I should be
782
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:29,680
playing the drums in the circus
band, accenting the efforts of
783
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:33,080
the performers and stuff.
So it's 16 years old.
784
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:37,000
I was, I spent the summer on the
circus and it just, it just
785
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,640
kept.
It's like Domino's falling down
786
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,280
my whole career.
They're just yet another
787
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,280
incredible thing to apply myself
to.
788
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:49,680
Yeah.
I mean, that's, that's how my
789
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,040
life has been.
And I remember my mom at a
790
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,600
younger age when I didn't
exactly know what to do
791
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,720
professionally.
I always was active like you
792
00:43:56,720 --> 00:43:59,000
creating something.
Always.
793
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:02,800
I had sales, I had businesses, I
had jewelry companies, Magna
794
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,400
companies, all this stuff.
But professionally, to make
795
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:06,800
money, I didn't really know what
to do.
796
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:10,680
I remember one of my mom's piece
of advice was just just do
797
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:12,400
something.
Everything leads to something
798
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,160
else.
And just like you said, Domino's
799
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,960
falling, you know, I had to pee
and I went into a gym and
800
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,160
watching sports clubs and I was
not a trainer.
801
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,960
I was training my boyfriend at
Merrill Lynch and a woman asked
802
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,760
me to train her.
But I went to pee and I ended up
803
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,160
becoming a trainer, ended up
teaching the main morning
804
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:32,360
classes for 2 1/2 years and, and
becoming a certified trainer and
805
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,360
going on Fox News and a couple
months later and all this stuff.
806
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:38,920
So you, you know, sometimes just
one thing, Lisa, next, if you're
807
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,920
open, you're involved.
And I guess if you have somewhat
808
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:45,480
of a good attitude and people
don't hate you, you know that
809
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,680
that happens.
You know, used to like, you're a
810
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:53,320
likable guy now.
Yeah, that's what happens.
811
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,320
Yeah, as.
Far as a likability, you know,
812
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,720
do you think that some of your
success in being constantly
813
00:44:59,720 --> 00:45:04,440
employed has to do with people
liking you or just liking your
814
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:08,280
work?
Yeah, I think it's a combination
815
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:13,240
because certainly the the
personality is what allows them
816
00:45:13,240 --> 00:45:17,400
to consider that, hey, this
might be a guy that I'd like to
817
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:23,640
to have create something.
And definitely so, yeah,
818
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,400
likeability, being a people
person.
819
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:30,600
And what's interesting was as a
child, I wasn't, I wasn't that
820
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,680
interested in other people
because of this line of work.
821
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:38,800
It was necessary for me to
become people person.
822
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:42,880
And today I've transformed.
I've done a 180 from when I was
823
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:46,800
a kid, you know, and I am
genuinely interested in other
824
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:50,240
people today.
Yeah, it seems like that.
825
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:57,000
To get a little more into that
other parts of your persona,
826
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:01,560
your personality, the way of
life that you had before, you're
827
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,560
working with all these different
people as an entrepreneur that
828
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:09,080
you had to put aside in order to
work with the public as a
829
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:13,840
businessman.
Yes, my personality and my
830
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:20,760
embracing the, the, the personal
aspect of the customer relation
831
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,640
has just transformed me because
when I was a child, I was a
832
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:28,280
little bit reluctant.
But then because of the line of
833
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:34,640
work and having to process so
many customers, I've actually
834
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:39,160
done a 180 and I've transformed
from somebody who's reluctant
835
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:42,800
into somebody who's genuinely
interested in other people.
836
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:49,000
And the way that I, the way that
I treat this, this, I guess this
837
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:53,000
responsibility I have with the
talent that I've been blessed
838
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:58,560
with is finding ways to be a
blessing to other people.
839
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:03,640
I love that.
Yes, yes, my dad said something
840
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:07,760
along the lines of, you know,
every, every room you walk into
841
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:11,800
or everyone that you meet, they
should feel thankful that they
842
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:15,720
got to meet you and that's kind
of how you should live your
843
00:47:15,720 --> 00:47:17,920
life.
So I try to walk into every room
844
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:21,320
and at least try to make
something better, even if it's
845
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:23,600
picking off a piece of lint off
the floor.
846
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:26,400
Just do something, you know,
Because you know, we're all
847
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:29,240
humans and we're breathing and
we're flushing toilets and we're
848
00:47:29,240 --> 00:47:32,160
using water.
So we're all creating waste and
849
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:34,400
pollution, no, no matter how
good of a person you are.
850
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:38,560
So therefore I feel like to
counteract it, the bare minimum
851
00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:41,760
is trying to contribute
something to this society.
852
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:46,200
Yeah, definitely.
So now your work, what's, what's
853
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,160
one of the most interesting
pieces of work that you've done
854
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:53,040
to you?
One of the most well horses are
855
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,840
my absolute favorite thing of
all to paint.
856
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,160
I love.
Horses, Well, I've had horses
857
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:02,960
for 30 years, so I, I just love
horses so.
858
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:06,400
And there's actually a painting
in my home.
859
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:14,280
I had this idea of a yin Yang
type of a design with a winged
860
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:20,480
horse and a seahorse.
So I, I, it's something that I,
861
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:25,720
I that I started several years
ago.
862
00:48:25,720 --> 00:48:29,040
It took several years to and if
you want to see it, I can show
863
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:32,280
it to you I think.
Sure, let's see, I think I can.
864
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:37,720
Show it to you if I walk over
here with the laptop and can you
865
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:42,520
see it maybe?
A little bit, Yeah, a little
866
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,040
bit.
You can even send a picture.
867
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:45,960
We could put it at the bottom of
the interview.
868
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:46,880
Yeah.
You know what?
869
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:49,080
Send send me a picture of that.
I'll put that at the bottom of
870
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:50,720
the interview Like that.
That's cool.
871
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:52,480
Really pretty.
I like that.
872
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,320
That was kind of a way cool
thing to do.
873
00:48:55,320 --> 00:49:00,640
I was inspired and you know,
sometimes I get an inspiration
874
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,120
and it just doesn't go away, so
I know.
875
00:49:03,240 --> 00:49:04,480
Yeah.
Act on it.
876
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:07,760
And so that's.
That's how that painting got
877
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,560
done.
It got, it got started.
878
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:15,360
I got about 3/4 of the way
through and then and then leaned
879
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,280
it up somewhere and forgot about
it for a couple years and then
880
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:22,320
somebody gave me that beautiful
frame and then that prompted me
881
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:24,560
to get it done.
So I.
882
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:26,920
Put it in the frame.
So yeah.
883
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:28,560
And the next thing you know,
it's done.
884
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:30,680
It's hanging on the wall.
That's cool.
885
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,000
Now you, you're, you're a bit of
a character.
886
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,760
You're interesting.
You know, I like sketch comedy.
887
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,840
I could see you being some
character or maybe I would draw
888
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:42,840
on you for some of my personas.
You ever do self portraits or
889
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:45,680
any acting?
Some acting.
890
00:49:46,240 --> 00:49:49,600
Or self portraits of yourself.
Anything featuring yourself in
891
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:53,560
your work?
Oh well, memoirs I've been
892
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:55,920
writing.
I'm an off, I'm an author.
893
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:57,560
I'm also.
In all three.
894
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:02,080
Memoirs 3 Memoirs written.
I'm working on three more and.
895
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:05,400
Yeah, let's hear about that.
I've become quite a storyteller.
896
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:15,040
Well, I, I've actually had quite
an interesting life and it
897
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:19,560
started around the circus and
then I became fascinated with
898
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:23,320
not only horses, but especially
sign painting.
899
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:26,200
And, and then I've had to evolve
as the years.
900
00:50:26,240 --> 00:50:30,160
It seems like every decade I had
to evolve into something,
901
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,960
something else.
And so, and it's all, it's all
902
00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:38,320
been super interesting and, and
I have a passion for, you know,
903
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:41,600
all of those things, I guess
that that are disappearing, you
904
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:47,440
know, the crafts type and then
the the classic horsemanship
905
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:51,240
and, and a lot of things that
are that have been a, a big part
906
00:50:51,240 --> 00:50:56,560
of civilization and mankind and
all that kind of stuff.
907
00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,000
And, and so I just have a
passion.
908
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,560
And so now I'm taking all of
that interesting information
909
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:09,720
that I've accumulated during my
whole life, plus the this, this,
910
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:13,320
I guess you'd say the scene,
the, the, the way that I
911
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:17,000
accumulated that.
And I'm putting it into the form
912
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:23,520
of stories to with the
underlying theme, because the
913
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:27,320
end result of me going through
all of this stuff was it made me
914
00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:30,160
a better person.
And so now I'm writing books,
915
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:35,960
and the motive is to make it so
that the reader is inspired and
916
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:41,640
they benefit from what the theme
of each one of the books are.
917
00:51:43,240 --> 00:51:47,920
Now someone who's.
It's like that.
918
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:52,640
The book I, I've written a book,
it's called Kinker Circusing the
919
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:56,800
70s and it's about a 10 year
period that started when I was a
920
00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:01,280
teenager and it goes on to about
a 10 year period.
921
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:05,400
And it was pretty much all about
my life with the circus.
922
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:09,960
All that chaos and turbulence
and excitement and adventure and
923
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:14,360
all of the, all of the aspects
of the circus back in the 1970s
924
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:19,520
that are pretty much gone today.
And there's an underlying theme
925
00:52:20,240 --> 00:52:23,880
because as a child, I did, I had
this feeling like maybe I didn't
926
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:27,320
quite belong anywhere.
And then.
927
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:29,960
So this is like the underlying
theme.
928
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:34,040
And then the payoff at the
conclusion of the book has to do
929
00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:38,160
with discovering that yes,
indeed, I do belong.
930
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:42,120
And not only do I belong, but I
belong in a big way.
931
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:44,760
So.
And which is hopefully to
932
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:48,560
inspire the reader, too.
Yeah.
933
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,160
Yeah, that's, that's such a
great feeling, 'cause you know,
934
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,960
I'll be 42 soon, which I see is
very young.
935
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,280
You know, my view of 42 is like,
you might as well be 10 years
936
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,680
old.
But looking back, I was thinking
937
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:01,800
about this earlier of my high
school years.
938
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:05,040
I was just like my senior year,
I was ready to give up.
939
00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,320
And I was just like, so it's
very easy to feel that way as a
940
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:11,040
kid.
So it is really important for
941
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:16,880
readers, listeners, people to
have examples like you and me
942
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:21,520
and everyone to share how maybe
their paths turned out in a way
943
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:23,960
where you're like, oh, this is
where I belong.
944
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:27,560
This makes sense.
This isn't all a waste of time,
945
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:29,200
you know.
Yep.
946
00:53:29,240 --> 00:53:34,400
And all of those things I went
through were all designed for
947
00:53:34,720 --> 00:53:42,480
for an even higher purpose then,
yeah, then simply being like
948
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:45,360
inconvenient or something that I
didn't like.
949
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,960
And no, it was designed for my
growth.
950
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:52,120
My personal growth occurred as
the result of going through all
951
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,880
of those things.
So then all of a sudden we can
952
00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:59,560
become grateful for everything
we've gone through during our
953
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,840
life.
I feel the same way and that you
954
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,960
actually set yourself up
perfectly from my final
955
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:12,000
question, which was going to be
do you believe in God or destiny
956
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:16,280
or fate or things that are meant
to be in 2 minutes?
957
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:20,120
Yeah, definitely.
It's really interesting.
958
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:24,680
I have.
My daddy was a preacher and I
959
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:27,560
didn't want to have anything to
do with the church when I was a
960
00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:31,520
kid because they were all I was.
I guess I was sensitive and I
961
00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:36,320
noticed things and stuff.
So it wasn't until I was
962
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:41,680
introduced to a practical
relationship with God through
963
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:47,360
the recovery fellowship of a A
and that's where I was
964
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:51,640
introduced to.
I guess I would be more of a
965
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:55,880
metaphysical thinker than a than
a religion type guy.
966
00:54:55,880 --> 00:55:03,520
I'm more of A I have AI, have a
personal spiritual relationship
967
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,360
with a higher power today.
That's.
968
00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:13,080
That is my that has given me a
design for living my life that I
969
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:17,080
really enjoy today.
So yeah, hopefully that's a that
970
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,800
was a good answer to that
question.
971
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,560
But do of course, yeah, I sure
do.
972
00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:26,760
And it's, and what has happened
is the years have gone by, that
973
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:31,440
relationship has become more and
more important to me.
974
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:39,120
That's really cool.
I are your memoirs able to be
975
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:41,240
listened to or do we have to
read them?
976
00:55:41,240 --> 00:55:45,880
Do you have any books on tape?
Not yet, but that's one of my
977
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:49,400
ambitions is to make all of the
books into audio books.
978
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:51,520
Yeah.
And people tell me I'm really
979
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,480
good at it.
Yeah, yeah, I think you should
980
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:58,440
do it as your own voice.
That's exactly right, yeah.
981
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,360
Yeah, you don't need someone
else to narrate your story.
982
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:02,960
Why don't you tell your own
story?
983
00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:05,080
That's right.
Yeah, Yeah.
984
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:07,280
And.
It doesn't have to be perfect,
985
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:10,480
you know, You can, you can pop
your peas or I don't know.
986
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,880
I mean, obviously you want to
have high quality recordings,
987
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,640
but I think just the way you're
doing it right now informally is
988
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:17,040
great.
But OK, I'm not.
989
00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:19,480
Yeah.
Anyway, we're at the end of the
990
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:21,320
interview.
Thank you very much.
991

1006
00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:12,200
worry that I'm going to torture
the guest.

So I'm I'm glad I didn't torture
